Dear Community, Professor Felix Drubb, Studio Art, has completed his 8 year project, “Stairs.” His artist statement reads as follows: “‘Stairs’ is about verticality. It is about the way we move through and of space. It is platforms that are flat but rise. It is about how we are constrained and how we are liberated. It is a commentary, as well, on domesticity, and how domesticity confers with gender and class. And race! I was surprised by the project when I first conceived it. I had not thought of stairs. I never used stairs. Stairs.”
“Stairs” is currently on display at Professor Felix Drubb’s private residence. Please contact him directly to arrange a viewing time. Professor Drubb’s wife, who inspired the work eight years ago, asks that she not be contacted regarding the installation. In a separate statement, she wrote “And no, you cannot use the bathroom.”
