Blurb#2: “The Birth of Baby X”

Marni Kotak’s exhibition called “The Birth of Baby X” takes art into a different realm. She brings the concept of art back to home while simultaneously stretching its meaning into abstraction. In her works as a whole Kotak looks to share her experiences with her audience is real time. They literally get to see her life in action, played out before them unedited and unscripted. This concept is epitomized in her newest work “The Birth of Baby X” on exhibition at the Microscope Gallery in Brooklyn where she converted the space into a birthing room- the show room for her baby’s birth. The exhibit also includes sculptures and other works but gives way for the main event: “The Birth of Baby X”.
