LOCATION: 1158 Lyman Ave, Oak Park, IL

Mirrored plexiglass, vinyl, wood, mulch

A continuation of a series of sculptures that transform historical artworks into ground-to-air signals. This work uses the form of one of Robert Smithson’s non-sites to create the symbol for “Not able to continue.”

Hideous Beast is a collaboration between Josh Ippel and Charlie Roderick. Since 2004 they have organized structured participatory events, published how-to manuals and most recently created interactive sculptures and installations that examine survival culture. 

Hideous Beast operates out of Chicago, IL. Primarily working with non-commercial art spaces, they have exhibited work with a variety of artist-run spaces, galleries, museums and festivals nationally and internationally.
