Sanitary Tortilla Factory, Albuquerque, NM (November 10-24, 2017). An exhibition of interdisciplinary works exploring human limitations and the exquisite nature of failure. Communal phrases of promise and codes of distress coexist and contrast the artist’s own fractured faith and embrace of doubt. A series of photographs contends with self-conscious moments of reverence by exposing each sheet of film for as long as I held my breath. Accompanying installations repurpose industrial materials, inviting the visitor to engage with their own presence and sensorial experience in the space.
