A talk by the artist. Born in Trinidad, Karyn Olivier was featured in the Greater New York 2005 exhibition at PS1 Contemporary Art Center. Her latest works were also showcased at the New Work, Women and their Work exhibition at Austin, Texas, and at the Double Consciousness: Black Conceptual Art since 1970 exhibition at the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston, Texas. Both a confounding delight and a perplexing satisfaction to the senses, Olivier's installations toy with dimension, scale and physical access, while challenging the social hierarchies of public and private space.

Recorded Friday, September 16, 2005 at the Museum of Modern Art as part of its Conversations with Contemporary Artists series. David Little, director of Adult and Academic Programs at the MoMA, introduces the program.
