 Building\, Room 406  In her sculptures\, Huma Bhabha works with common mat
 erials such as chicken wire\, unfired clay\, Styrofoam\, fiberglass\, and 
 insulation foam to create works that have tactility at their core. With th
 ese materials she builds evocative figures and constructions rich with nar
 rative that simultaneously evoke totems and industrial models. Bhabha scul
 pts visceral forms with construction detritus that reflect contemporary an
 xieties\; the cracked\, crumbling\, and fragile objects convey themes of c
 ultural fictions and the nature of the body. While referring to current po
 litical situations as well as the human condition at large\, the visual cu
 es in her work subversively mine the archives of modern and contemporary W
 estern art. Bhabha was born in Karachi\, Pakistan and currently lives in N
 ew York. She is the recipient of the 2008 Emerging Artist Award at the Ald
 rich Contemporary Art Museum in Connecticut. She has exhibited internation
 ally in countries including Pakistan\, Mexico\, Germany\, Denmark\, and th
 e Netherlands\, as well as across the United States. Recently\, she was in
 cluded in the 'Greater New York' exhibition at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Cent
 er\, NY and the 'USA Today' exhibition at The Royal Academy in London.\n\n
