Exhibition Details
The works in the exhibition, all made over the last two decades, explore how lens- and time-based media have enabled artists to articulate desiring and melancholic modes of relationality across generations.
Intervening in commemorative genres of image making—including portraiture and documentary—through performative acts, selective appropriation, and imaginative staging, these works produce and problematize queer forms of kinship.

Additional Details
The exhibition reflects on the ability of film and video to disrupt processes of both memorialization and erasure, foregrounding instead the multivalent meanings and affective charge created by resonant combinations of image, sound, and text.
