What's better than fishing from an ice hole? Fishing from an ice hole in an igloo. And what's even better than that? The fact that beer always stays crisp and cold in an igloo, so the mountains will always remain blue (actually more of a a periwinkle) on your Coors Light can. Since igloos come [...]

Le sigh. Don't you wish you were in Finland right now? Wearing a (faux) fur jumpsuit, drinking lingonberry juice, ice swimming/reindeer sledding/pond skating, falling asleep in a glass igloo under the northern lights..... I do.

May Juliette Barruel's textile-based work and photography address themes of nostalgia, obsession, and loss in an intimate and often voyeuristic fashion. For this exhibition, Barruel investigates a variety of materials in order to reify her experience, and here her voice finds resonance in printed words and embroidered textiles.
Conceptual tapestries and text works accompany Barruel's photographs to create "And Now We Do What We Do", a reflection on a half-life of dating, falling, hoping, pining, loving, and obsessing with its fair share of drunken haircuts, romantic inspirations, ridiculously embarrassing behaviors, and hundreds of hours spent wallowing while listening to songs by Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and Bill Callahan. The work is both catharsis and hypothesis, a searching for the existence of truth and love in an endlessly fragmented and often lost contemporary youth culture.
