Danielle Julian Norton, an artist and faculty member at Columbus College of Art and Design, assembles her installation for Extreme Materials 2, an exhibition organized by the Memorial Art Gallery that features work created from unusual, often mundane, materials. Titled “Clear,” Norton’s installation is made up of about 12,000 bars of Neutrogena amber facial cleansing soap. Weighing more than 3,000 pounds, the work took seven days to assemble. The exhibition runs through Jan. 15, 2012.
