Ryan Carrington: Contradictions

Ryan Carrington’s work utilizes symbols of Americana to bridge issues of labor, class, work ethic and economics with his personal and family history. His exhibition, Contradictions, investigates the rich conceptual history that pre-worn garments have to share. Through his use of blue and white-collar uniforms to create American flags, Carrington provokes conversations about how we value each other in our ever-changing society.
