Past, present, and future converge in Cristina de Gennaro’s mixed media and sound installation. Janus Doorway is punctuated by clocks and wishbones that adorn the curved interior of the Wave Hill House Foyer and create visual patterns reminiscent of wallpaper. The installation calls attention to our cyclical perception of the passage of time, and yearly renewal through the familiar rhythms of seasonal rituals and traditions. De Gennaro’s overlapping arrangements of objects and sounds represent the emotional polarities of celebration and obligation, a symbolic accounting of gains and losses with the approach of the New Year. www.cristinadegennaro.com
