CURATED BY CHARMAINE WARREN<\/h3>\n

DoublePlus<\/a><\/strong> embraces the artist-as-curator format to present split-bill evenings featuring artists deserving of new or wider visibility, each curated by an established artist.<\/p>\n

Alexander Diaz
\nGetting closer to Coral
\n<\/i><\/strong>Getting closer to Coral<\/span><\/i> explores memories of being too feminine, not “manly” enough, and being instructed to love the normalized idea of masculinity. Diaz recalls the isolation of his “different,” expressive four-year-old self and remembers life as a 26-year-old afraid to wear a dress and make-up in public. Movement, clothing and love songs from the latter 20th century enable Diaz to revisit personas and masks used to shield his vulnerable identity throughout life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jennifer Harrison Newman
\ntopologies
\n<\/i><\/strong>topologies<\/span><\/i> is a meditation on the porousness of borders, real and imagined, natural and technological, internal and external. Using performance, video, and architecture <\/span>topologies <\/span><\/i>puts the body at the center of an environment in a constant state of slippage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
