PRACTICE welcomes guests to the Paleolithic Period to view the final resting place for two nearly extinct cave people.Andrew Brehm’s Hominine takes viewers cave-deep into a prehistoric lovers-stalemate through sculptures and live audio works. Hominine is installation as a sitcom of objects, each part humorously lampooning the eternal struggle of long-term relationships, investment strategies, and modernization. Join the artist for two live-reading performances on opening night or enjoy the sculpture as a recording throughout the month of August.Audio support for this project provided by Ay!MrAbout the ArtistAndrew Brehm is an installation and performanced-based artist, currently residing in New York who often produces work using the medium of video production.
