There's Something Happening Here...
2–20 October 2017
Anese Projects // New York
​Developed during a three month residency at NARS Foundation (Brooklyn) in 2017, there’s something happening here… responds to the political atmosphere of the Charlottesville riots that occurred during the residency. Proposing feminist objects of protection and resistance, the whimsical and embodied forms conjure stirrings of protest, retaliation and self-defense as they emerge through the body of work. Domestic and industrial materials merge and transform into what could potentially be (benign) weapons, flotation devices, protective gear, or protest devices. These sculptural pieces are active and performative, enabling moments of transformation and action. Physical objects are then extended through performative photographs that imagine alternate behaviours and actions.
​
Additional works were exhibited at the residency group exhibition Various Existential Angst, NARS Foundation Brooklyn, at the culmination of the residency.
