Spotlight: Sarah Kabot

A selection of collages by Cleveland Institute of Art faculty member Sarah Kabot takes over the Heights Arts Spotlight gallery space this fall, with an opening reception on Friday, Sept. 16, 6–9 p.m. For the year 2015, Kabot collected all of the front-page sections of The New York Times Sunday edition. These photographically documented events were deemed significant enough to be reported in a global newspaper of record, yet less than a year later, in some cases, most have since slipped out of the headlines. In her series, NYT 2015, Kabot collages together photographs of people printed in a single edition from that year, creating delicate cut-out compositions that encourage viewers to get up close and carefully look at the remains.
