The Tenderer (also, The Tender)

2018-2019


The Tenderer was created for the 2019 Joshua Treenial, an invitational exhibition held at BoxoHouse in Joshua Tree, California. The installation consisted of a site-specific DIY screening hut constructed from found materials and a screening of short experimental films about adapting to life in the desert.


A second component was a large-scale projection of selected films onto the boulders at night.
