This week: Duncan and Shannon Stratton talk to artist Anne
Wilson.
From Anne Wilson's website:
"My work evolves in a conceptual space where social and political
ideas encounter the material processes of handwork and industry,
where the organization of fields and the objects they help generate
is constantly subverted by the swarming, anarchic energy of the
objects themselves. Extrapolating from personal subjective rituals
to observations of larger systems within the built environment, I
investigate the micro- and macrocosms of networks and matrices
through stitch, crochet, knot, net, animation, and sound. Using
pixilation and projection, I de-materialize and re-animate work
that began on the border between drawing and object making, and
remains liminal in whatever new medium it enters. My source
materials - hair, linen, lace, pins, wire, and thread - are the
props of both domestic culture and larger social systems. I join
together the points where these systems overlap, and where issues
of sexuality and decorum, vitality and death construct meaningful
relationships, and find release."
ALSO: Mike Benedetto and Guest reviewer Tony Fitzpatrick review The
Dark Knight, and some naughty things are said!
