Raven Chacon, Gabi Dao, Lou Sheppard: Relations Of Responsibility

SFU Galleries - Audain Gallery, Seattle, WA - To Dec 7

by Robin Laurance

Inspired by the writings of theoretical physicist and feminist Karen Brand, curator cheyanne turions has organized an exhibition “that consider[s] the materializing effects of performance, where ethical obligations extend to the tools used, as much as to the composers and performers themselves.” Featured are works by New Mexico–based Diné artist-composer Raven Chacon, excerpts from Gabi Dao’s Domestic Cinema (2018-19) series and a screening of A Strong Desire (2018), by Halifax artist Lou Sheppard.
