Downen’s art envisions a place of interdependent relations between the human body and architecture, where the interchanging forces and tensions of construction, deterioration and restoration emerge as resonant thematic possibilities. Downen, an assistant professor and chair of sculpture at the Kansas City Art Institute, has created the post-modern site- specific work, An Architectural Folly From a Future Place — a seemingly functional structure that in reality has no purpose other than to be the subject of contemplation.
