An exhibition that believes every object has layered authenticity. Coinciding with an exhibition of forgeries by Mark Landis, Fakin' It plays with the concept of "false" by showcasing a sincerity of materials and authentic voices of a group of international artists. Works question the continually blurring line between sculpture and painting. SOme explot the studio as stage for decoys and charlatans. While others are masterfully hand -crafted versions of debris and dollar store items. Fakin' It showcases the playfully acute struggle artists have with honesty.
