I was invited to participate in a group exhibition curated by Aaron Kissman in the summer of 2014.
This two-channel video installation was inspired in part by a lapse in a digital television broadcast that I witnessed while waiting at the DMV, fantasy sequences in the film American Beauty (1999), and a bygone technique used in perfumery - using rendered animal fat to capture the volatile oils of flowers.
My second contribution to this exhibition came in the form of homemade ice cream deserts that were distributed at the opening. Short phrases were inscribed onto the popsicle sticks with Sharpie. These evoked the comic theater of gender expression, the appropriation of formerly radical ideas, and the politics of pleasure.
