Through his humorous, interactive sculpture, Martin Morehouse initiates an awareness of sensory perception, political structures and self-perception. For the most part, he designs these machines and devices to elicit an emotional/psychological response while simultaneously involving the viewer’s physical body. In this regard, the sculptor is looking to increase possibilities for how people (himself included) understand themselves, both internally and in relation to the rest of the world. Morehouse received his BA in Studio Arts from Carleton College and his MFA in sculpture from Washington University in St. Louis. In addition to numerous solo and group shows, the sculptor has curated exhibitions and is the recipient of numerous grants and awards. His interactive solo show “Through the Sausage Factory: Eyes and Ears and Nose and Throat” ran this past summer at the Bemis Center.
