Constant Craving
Maddie Alexander
The Anna Leonowens Gallery
March 3rd-7th, 2020
Shame
the painful feeling arising from consciousness of something dishonorable or improper done by oneself or another:
Where do you hold shame in your body?
Desire
a longing or craving, for something that brings satisfaction or enjoyment:
How close is it to where you hold desire?
Is your shame an acute reaction to desire? Do you feel desire without a trace of shame?
In this exhibition, multidisciplinary artist Maddie Alexander explores the attachments between shame, desire, and memory through the lens of embodied queer + trans experience.
