Somewhere Along the Black Sea in the Distant North-East, or in Libya in the Furthest South, The Amazons – The Woman and the Girls Children – Exist Just Outside of the Range of Normal Human Experience
2012 - Painting (Painting)
Ellen Lesperance
Ellen Lesperance begins with archival footage of various activist events throughout history. Poring through details of these moving images, Lesperance isolates out the clothing of the activists, identifying objects that seem to relate to the ideological goals of their wearers. Her ensuing gouche and graphite patterns re-imagine these objects as knitting patterns for the activist’s sweaters, carefully rendered and plotted on tea-stained paper. Memorializing these social protests through the smallest details, Lesperance hopes to cement these moments in our collective memory.
