New York–based artist Megan Marrin carefully depicts anachronistic objects that implicate the human body, and the cycles of conditioning and control that shape it. Recognized for her paintings of antique showers, Pilates equipment, and punishment devices, Marrin's exhibition in Aspen presents a suite of paintings of interiors designed by the French designer Jean-Michel Frank. This is Marrin's first institutional solo exhibition in the United States.
