Calvin Brett presents 800 Opening Reception: Thursday August 13, 6-8pm Exhibition Dates: August 13 – August 15 Multimedia exhibition uses repetition, sculpture, video projection, augmented reality and installation to transform one of the world’s largest humanitarian challenges into a spacial experience while raising funds to help end extreme global poverty. North Carolina interdisciplinary artist Calvin Brett presents 800, a multimedia art exhibition that uses the number 800 to symbolically represent the approximately 800 million people currently living in extreme poverty worldwide. Through installation, video, augmented reality and wall art using repeated visual forms, the exhibition seeks to make an incomprehensibly large number tangible, creating a reason to contribute to The Borgen Project’s non profit efforts to end extreme global poverty.

Performances in July & August In August, we will present our final Lump project 800 with Calvin Brett. August 13 – 15th. There are approximately 800 million people living in extreme poverty today. As a percent of the global population that’s roughly 10%. That percentage 100 years ago was closer to 60%. We should work toward ending extreme global poverty to increase people’s opportunity to realize their innate human potential. This would increase global stability, commerce, and innovation, while reducing human suffering. To gain a sense of the scale of the 800 million people currently living in extreme poverty today, artwork in this exhibit uses installations in sculpture, video, augmented reality, and print, to show pieces exploring sensations of space and form through agglomerations of 800. This exhibit is a fundraiser for the Borgen Project. The Borgen Project is an advocacy organization […]
