DOWAGERS<\/h2>\n

March 3 – 31, 2017<\/h3>\n

Friday, March 3, 6 – 8 p.m.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Using elements of hand-driven animation, printmaking, and puppetry,\u00a0Dowagers<\/em>\u00a0will explore ideas about vanity, shame, and disappointment through a set of reclusive sisterly characters with a grudge to bare.<\/span><\/p>\n

Artist Statement\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

My work behaves as playful coping rituals for anxieties about aging, vanity, shame, and disappointment. I use elements of animation, printmaking, and puppetry to concoct an elixir of discomfort and delight. This coupling of unfamiliarity and recognizability is seductive in the belly. <\/span>My recent performative puppet\/figure work, Dowagers, explores ideas about control and play through a pair of reclusive sisterly spinsters who manage to encounter glee despite their strange condition.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n
