Hot Mess by Alicia Ross [MFA 2006]

Hot Mess by Alicia Ross

October 22 - November 21, 2010

Opening Reception:
Friday, October 22, 6 - 9 PM

In Hot Mess, Alicia Ross explores the mechanism of the consensual production of symbolic values. She passionately tackles difficult subject matter and taboos within society and presents them as naked truth.

The works’ often provocative appearances highlight the artist's ongoing exploration of ideas surrounding conflicting views of feminine identity in the contemporary society and the ubiquitous virtuous/voracious societal impulses towards the female form. Ross appropriates images from online media sources and digitally translates them into cross-stitched constructions, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool. The finished pieces reflect a fusion between hand-made traditions and digital aesthetics.

Location:
Black and White Gallery
483 Driggs Avenue
Brooklyn, NY
