The Brooklyn-based artist, known for her large, all-encompassing drawings of interiors, presents just what her project’s title promises: a microcosmic view of her kitchen table, strewn with huge packs of gum, towering spools of thread, and her friend Marc Leuthold’s artwork. To preserve scale, the drawing has been printed at actual size as a five-panel fold-out, measuring 11½" x 39".
