About:
Interested in exploring the notions of insider, outsider and the other, artist Adrienne Elise Tarver will create an installation to exploit our curiosity of what’s within the barriers and question what is gained (and at the same time lost) once we’ve looked inside. She does this with both large scale video projections and a miniature model home, to explore the life of a woman from an old photograph she found in a thrift store. Young, black, and female, wearing glasses and facing the camera, Tarver was enticed by her anonymity, and built a story about the woman, starting with her home and finding the narrative as the pieces came together.
