The Heidelberg Project's POST-HAB Gallery Presents: Material Desirez by Dain Mergenthaler
Are materials desired, desirable, or do the materials themselves desire something else? Composed of intersecting installations, Dain Mergenthaler's Material Desirez poses more questions than answers, as he grants agency to a bedroom turned art installation at the Heidelberg Project's POST-HAB gallery.
