42 social club's press release / webpage for TORRENT - my solo exhibition in lyme, ct in september - october of 2017. this exhibition examined the notion of a torrent: defined as both a rushing, violent, unceasing flow and the modern method of pirating digital information. i premiered a new multi-channel video installation continuing my explorations into the fascinating world of youtube makeup tutorials. this time the lens was focused on a strange, politically satirical, trend that has come to be known as "trumping". this new work unveils a unique subculture of female/femme-identifying makeup artists imitating, and often mocking, donald trump. in TORRENT, these trumping videos were contrasted with a series of bleak landscape photographs and additional single / multi-channel video works, resulting in a juxtaposition which reflected on the tumultuous state of the nation.
