That Tomb That Knows No Sound

Marquee Projects
​Bellport, NY
2024
In my first solo exhibition at Marquee Projects, I explores themes and variations concerning interiority: subterranean interiors of the earth (soil, water, insects, human and animal remains); interiors of religious systems (ritual, power, tradition); and interiors of the human body (mutation, decay, birth, violation). I investigate commonalities between these internal systems, their shared duration over time, and the external forces which act upon them – what is buried and kept, and what is mined, extracted, or taken. 

The Tomb That Knows No Sound incorporates sculpture and digital video to investigate what happens when the interior is made visible, when stillness is interrupted by force, and when the sacred is disturbed.
