This will be Woods\u2019 first solo exhibition with Light Work since her residency here in 2016. The exhibition will be on view in the Kathleen O. Ellis Gallery at Light Work from August 28\u2015October 19, 2017, with an opening reception with the artist on Wednesday, September 13, from 5-6pm.<\/p>\n As part of the opening reception, we invite gallery patrons to a special presentation at 6pm.

Titled You are mine. I see now, I\u2019m a have to let you go<\/em>, this collaboration was generously supported by Syracuse University\u2019s Humanities Center and is part of the 2017-18 Syracuse Symposium: Belonging. Both events are free, open to the public, and offer refreshments.<\/p>\n Urban Video Project (UVP) will feature Sun\u00e9 Woods\u2019 video work, A Feeling Like Chaos<\/em>, concurrently with When a Heart Scatter, Scatter, Scatter<\/em> in the Everson\u2019s Robineau Gallery and To Sleep with Terra at Light Work. Woods says that A Feeling Like Chaos \u201cattempts to make sense of a continuum of disaster, toxicity, fear, and a political system that sanctions violence towards its citizens.\u201d This installation will be on view on the Everson Museum\u2019s north facade September 14\u201523 and October 5\u201528, 2017, from dusk until 11:00 p.m. Find more information at urbanvideoproject.com.<\/p>\n Los Angeles-based artist Sun\u00e9 Woods creates multi-channel video installations, photographs, sculpture, and collage. Her practice examines absences and vulnerabilities within cultural and social histories. She also uses microcosmal sites such as the family to understand the larger sociological phenomenon, imperialist mechanisms, and formations of knowledge. She is interested in how language is emotively expressed, guarded and translated through the absence and presence of the physical body.<\/p>\n To Sleep With Terra<\/em> includes photo-collage and works on paper that explore Wood\u2019s ongoing interest in creating her own topographies, gleaned from science, travel, and geographic magazines and books of the past fifty years. The collage work explores the social phenomena that indoctrinate brutality and the ways in which propaganda and exploitation have employed photography.<\/p>\n Woods has said of her artistic journey, \u201cCollage seemed the best way for me to articulate all the complicated sensations that were arising for me while processing these streamed documentations of violence, ecology, and a desire to understand more deeply how seemingly disparate things relate when they are mashed up in a visual conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n \u2014<\/p>\n Sun\u00e9 Woods has participated in residencies at Headlands Center for the Arts, Vermont Studio Center, The Center for Photography at Woodstock, and Light Work. Woods has received awards from the Visions from the New California Initiative, as well as The John Gutmann Fellowship Award, and The Baum Award for an Emerging American Photographer. She has exhibited her work at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, The Lowe Art Museum, Miami, and The San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery. She received her MFA from California College of the Arts in 2010 and is currently Visiting Faculty at Vermont College of Fine Art.<\/p>\n Mysneakers<\/a> | \u300e\u30a2\u30c7\u30a3\u30c0\u30b9\u300f\u306b\u5206\u985e\u3055\u308c\u305f\u8a18\u4e8b\u4e00\u89a7<\/a><\/span>
