  • Hirsute Drosscapes and Cenotaphs (Finem Respice)

    Installation shots from a solo exhibition at Co-Lab Projects in East Austin, these images show four main works and a human hair donation station.

    Exploring ruins, mourning, monument, energy and cultural architecture, this exhibition used mixed media to examine certain rituals and approaches to dealing with change, both communal and in our physical beings. During the run of the exhibition, I sat in a tent outside in character, making a community hair wheel out of donated human hair locks that people left at a cutting station in the gallery. The final piece was displayed for the closing night, as a memorial to this community of people unknown to one another, but bonded by a vague interest in conceptual art.
