[Pop-up] Gross Girls

Info via Find & Form…

Find & Form Space is pleased to present Gross Girls, a group exhibition of the work of Doreen Garner, Roya Haroun, Kira Leigh, Julia Litman-Cleper, and Kristen Sanders.

Gross Girls is five women artists who embrace bad taste, vulgarity, the human body in all of it’s dripping, spurting glory, looking you dead in the eyes, and “abrasiveness.”

Doreen Garner in her performance video The Observatory “displays herself as specimen inside a vitrine filled with stuffed condoms and hair, slathered with petroleum jelly and glitter. Video documents the interaction between the performer and the viewer.”

In her zine Itchy Clits and the Coochie Coup, Roya Haroun tells the story of a gang of former sex workers fighting the evil Miser.

Kira Leigh aims to counter the mail gaze with “ugly, hairy, sexual women,” while drawing you in with her seductive, candy colored imagery.

Kristen Sanders uses spiraling organs and intestines as her visual vocabulary in her “Environs” paintings, creating worlds that appear miles deep.

In her video piece Other Parts Julia Litman-Cleper combines “pseudo-scientific organ structures” with the human body using motion tracking software.
