The Swing House

Exhibition Overview

In the continuation of reimagining built space, the Swing House debuted at the Contemporary Arts Center during the Spring/Summer of 2018. 

Using salvaged materials and artifacts from both the the Swing House and de Jong’s upcoming “Stair House” project, large-scale installations, sculptural works, and video pieces were exhibited on the fourth floor of the museum. 

Displayed within the modern interiors of the Contemporary Arts Center, the old materials strike a deeper contrast—and time is further juxtaposed. In addition to showing old materials in new contexts, de Jong also reveals the age and history of the Contemporary Arts Center itself.
