Confronting Heritage
Cortney Metzger and Martín Wannam
March 17 - April 7, 2023 Public Reception: April 7, 5pm-8pm "Confronting heritage" is a visual exhibition featuring Cortney Metzger and Martín Wannam in conversation. The exhibition will present visual ideas of dynamic explorations of mediums utilized to individually explore, think and claim/ reclaim their mixed identities throughout the impact of coloniality and hegemony systems. Wannam, being a queer Guatemalan, will confront the constructed idea of their legacy for someone queer, brown, and immigrant, thinking about what it means to be a failure to reproduce an ideal in a heteropatriarchy world. Through photography, performance, and sculpture Wannam will confront standards placed on him via family legacy by disrupting those ideas through the act of queering. Metzger, of Osage descent, will confront the histories her people experienced during colonization and the removal of the Osage names through a combination of storytelling utilizing ceramic objects and the reclamation of her traditional name. |
Bathtub
New Works by Oskar Petersen
A collection of pastel pieces highlighting humor and interconnectedness. The work highlights the magnetic pull in the man-made and the natural world. There is a playfulness that exist. In these images inanimate objects, animals, humans, plants are all equal main characters arguing for their say. The perspectives and characters overwhelm to create a sense of comfort. Comfort that reality is not centered around one individual but concerned with everything. Opening Reception: Friday, March 10, 6pm-9pm Closing Reception: Saturday, April 1, 6pm-9pm |
