This Is Going Down
June 4 - 27, 2010
Meredith Nickie’s This Is Going Down is a new series of works that explore scenes of subjugation–full of unrest, yet alarmingly still. Works titled after anthems of protest, Strange Fruit and Waltzing Matilda allude to lynched and drowned figures through entangled forms of race and class struggle where the marked body is laid bare. In Nickie’s exhibition, the figure is made absent and represented by elements from the domestic interior and the public sphere in sculptural constructions.
