Artist’s Statement:
Michael Goering is a visual artist and musician who is  interested in the things of everyday life. For his installation in the Incubator Project Space he will use ordinary things-- furniture or other objects,  which he will combine or remodel in order to reveal their poetic potential...
 
During his visit to campus from Germany, he plans to select  objects from thrift stores and other low cost or free sites. He will work with the objects on site and see what  they have to tell.
