The desert is not a void, as it is so often depicted–it is an active landscape with vibrational subtleties that reward deep listening and looking. For half a decade, Hannah Spector has been travelling to West Texas multiple times a year to listen to this landscape. Their exhibition at Women & Their Work, if you stare at a cowboy’s face for long enough, it turns into a sunset, places queer bodies within a new mythos–one that turns against the hyperreal object of the American West as an imperial proving ground.
Featuring a multichannel sound and video installation with ceramic sculpture and copper-plate etchings, Spector projects a new future–one that disrupts gender norms, power systems within language, linear notions of time, and limiting means of self-expression.
The installation consisted of a 7-channel sound and video installation, with accompanying pit and barrel fired ceramics, intaglio etchings, and poetry.
