ON VIEW NOW: Shana Hoehn's solo exhibition "A Tangle of Limbs and Long Hair" is on view through October 15th at Make Room.
🌿
The title comes from a line in the artist’s autobiographical essay, Your Arch (2020), which reflects on growing up in the rural American South and the interplay of fantasy and political oppression as told through iconic images of arched backs. The selection of works in this exhibition continues to touch on themes of death, sexuality, and adolescence, set within humid landscapes such as swamps and ditches.
🌿
Working with diverse media such as cast aluminum from 3D printed molds, hand-carved wood, and colored pencil on rice paper, Hoehn’s latest work is a testament to her masterful storytelling through iconic forms. In “Breast Bracket #3 with Flower,” an Art Deco-inspired bracket fuses with a human breast, forming both an autonomous torso and utilitarian support hardware. Hoehn inserts a cast aluminum lily, evocative of a strap-on or a metal rod you might find in such flagpole mounts.
