493: Kim Dickey on the power of ornamentation

Today on the show I talk with sculptor Kim Dickey. She uses the
structures and flora of the garden as a springboard to create
large-scale sculpture and installation. In our interview we talk
about her use of brocage, the feminist claiming of space
through ornamentation, and her recent solo show Auguries at the
Robischon Gallery in Denver, CO. To see examples of her work
visit www.kimdickeystudio.com. Dickey is a Professor of Art
at the University of Colorado Boulder.
