Drawing on traditions of apothecary craft, pharmaceutical marketing, and visual art, Cervantes' compounded artistic approaches divulge the hope, fear, and purpose contained within the domestic medicine cabinet. As sites of ritual self-construction, medicine cabinets are porous spaces bridging the personal and political, the corporal and corporate. Indications invites viewers to consider the active ingredients of play, poetry and touch as forms of resistance to today's increasingly corporate health and wellness industries.<br><br>Access information:<br><br>If entering Griffith Hall through the Main Entrance at 601 S 43rd St., there are three sets of doors, each with five stairs leading up from street level. The middle set of stairs has railings on both sides.
