    Come experience silence in this amazing Kia Neill exhibit. What is CITYSIT? The act of sitting quietly (20 min) followed by the exchange of ideas & experiences (40 min). CITYSIT provides a temporary silent place in an unexpected urban space.

    Houston artist Kia Neill will create a textured installation called "Terrain." In the past her art installations enveloped viewers in magical environments such as caves or grottos. Those fabricated ecosystems were large enough to walk inside of giving the art an enclosed and intimate atmosphere.

    For her new work, she sets aside the claustrophobia of enclosed spaces and concentrates on the moment we connect to the earth -the terrain we navigate as our feet touch the floor. Viewers will walk through a hand built environment that leads us through fantastic moments of surprise and geological discovery.
