Moses Muturi and Eleanor Greer’s exhibition Discard | Rebuild explores the artists’ shared interest in the process of making and exploring the built environment through painting, collage and sculpture. Moses works with post-consumer products as his primary material, rendering the viewer responsible for our collective over-consumption. Eleanor explores shifts in the urban spaces she occupies on a daily basis, working from an interest in the disposable nature of architectural structures and the rapid replacement of one building with another. Collectively, these layered works celebrate their materiality while offering a reflection on the cycle of urban growth, consumption and waste. Moses and Eleanor are both current MFA candidates at SDSU School of Art and Design.
