SHELBY REED: STOMACH WITHOUT A BREATH

Ewing Gallery of Art + Architecture (UTK) / 1715 Volunteer Blvd. April 6 - 14th

Shelby Reed

stomach without a breath explores the experience and realities facing the existence of the feminine queer body. Floral bodies manifest themselves in the gallery as a physical abstracted representation of these bodies, seemingly struggling and weighed down by some kind of force or overwhelming visceral feeling. The artist weaves together a fantastical narrative exploring these concepts, characters, and forces through highly ornate ceramic and mixed media sculptures
