Publisher's Synopsis
Considering intergenerational and cultural inheritance through the prisms of intimacy and infrastructure
Designed as both a reader and an exhibition catalog, Intimate confession is a project explores the intersection between intimacy and infrastructure with a particular focus on the social landscape of Houston, where the corresponding exhibition took place. The 10 featured artists use multimedia works to think through infrastructure as an intimate holding cell, capable of great emotional power. Intended as a scholarly contribution to cross-disciplinary exchange between the visual arts and the humanities, the book includes essays by Ara Wilson, Kai Bosworth and Lara Mimosa Montes, as well as poetry by Juliana Sphar and Roberto Tejada.
Artists include: Gwenneth Boelens, Benvenuto Chavajay, ektor garcia, Lonnie Holley, Anna Mayer, Na Mira, Kate Newby, Josie Ann Teets, Chiffon Thomas, Iris Touliatou, Clémence de La Tour du Pin.
