*Carrie Rubinstein*’s work embodies a space beyond the confines of ordinary
reality. Transforming the gallery with pen and ink on paper, and
constructed and handmade paper objects, *Rubinstein* creates an invented
domestic environment. The viewer encounters a room where space is carefully
assembled with layered paper, and expands through pictorial illusion.
Translucent embossed ceiling tiles accented by a paper chandelier, filter
the gallery’s light which enfolds visitors as they explore an improvised
world. Honoring truth and fiction, *Rubinstein* embraces an intuitive
methodology of making through a trial and error system. Retrofit invites us
to contemplate presence and absence.
