In the exhibition, SEE INSTRUCTIONS, Wes Kline and Sean Miller present a series of iterative works generated through scores, written instructions, events, and intermedia experimentation. The duo present individual works as well as their collaborations with Fluxus artists such as Eric Andersen, Philip Corner, Ken Friedman, Yoko Ono, and others. Some of their works can be read as thought experiments to“imagine” while other texts result in tangible sculpture, video, performance, photography, and collaborative participatory audience engagement. Examples include a broken piano as an opportunity for transformation over destruction, and the secret healing potential that exists by involving jumping spiders with acupuncture sessions.
Wes Kline is an artist and faculty at Ringling College of Art and Design, having taught previously at New Mexico State University, for six years at the University of Florida and two years at St. Lawrence University. He earned his MFA in Studio Art from the University of Illinois, Chicago in 2005.
Sean Miller is an American artist best known for collaborative works that merge the roles of artist, curator, and collector. Miller employs intermedia approaches, experimental exhibition formats, storytelling, and speculative design strategies to examine historical events, institutional frameworks, and scientific knowledge. Miller’s practice seeks to raise awareness, empathy, and wellness in the individual and the natural world. The concept of the archive or cabinet of wonder is an organizing principle for many of his projects.
