Dear friends,
In the midst of heated global discussions about economic and social structures, I am writing to ask for your help in realizing an upcoming video installation & participatory event that is in dialogue with many of these issues. The project, Spectrum of Inevitable Violence, will be part of the deCordova Museum’s 2012 biennial, curated by Dina Deitsch & Abigail Ross Goodman, with the support of the Boston Center for the Arts. (For more information, see the Boston Globe article.)
I am producing videos based on stories of class anxieties solicited from the public. Please help by sharing with me stories about your own class anxieties through the form linked below, and by forwarding this request widely among friends and family! I would love to hear from you by November 1st for the best possible time frame.
I also need to fund the production of the videos. I am offering a unique drawing of your own spectrum of social class, and two limited edition photographs from Spectrum of Inevitable Violence (2010) as part of Experience Economies, curated by Rebecca Uchill & Gavin Kroeber. I hope you will consider purchasing one of these prints, which will make my new work possible. Please see below for images & more information.
Thank you for your generous participation and support!
very best,
Caitlin
