Chelsea Knight: The Breath We Took
Debuting a new gallery as part of the Granite City Art and Design District, Chelsea Knight’s compelling video work, The Breath We Drew, was screened across the street from the group exhibition Make Your Mother. This video work focuses on a woman's ambivalence about motherhood, childbearing and marriage from a Second Wave Feminist perspective. It also investigates her daughter's fears and challenges regarding her own marriage and motherhood, and the ways she feels she is performing herself in those roles, from a Third Wave Feminist perspective. Interviews, monologues, impromptu improvisation and fictional fantasies are included in this story about love, feminism and performance.
