Amanda Le Kline Closer

  On view from October 31 to November 27, 2015

On one side of the screen a bug writhes on the ground, most likely in the final moments of life. On the other side, a human attempts to mimic the bug’s movements, hoping to erase, if only for a moment, the constructed hierarchy of life that places humans above all else. Closer is an expression of the complex and varied relationships that humans have with nature. It reveals the uncanny that lies within our desires to get closer to nature as the distance between us grows.
