ARTIST STATEMENT:

Quinn Alexandria Hunter is an Interdisciplinary artist that is interested in the complexities of material resistance and the erasure of history from spaces and how the contemporary uses of space impacts the way we, as a culture, see the past. Her work negotiates between the self and the world. Hunter’s practice is contending with the false narratives of a romanticized past and interrupting them by laying a truth next to them.
