Under a Rock, Along the Shore: Exhibition Guide

  • Director's Note, Jordan Eddy

    Director's Note

    Jordan Eddy

    From a largely first-person perspective, under a rock, along the shore is about the eye and body's interactions with swiftly changing landscapes of the 21st century. It is keenly concerned with the craft of photography; through a dazzling array of processes and techniques, these artists plunge us into visual and tactile, cultural and political experiences of the Desert Southwest and other corners of the world.

  • Under a Rock, Along the Shore installation view- Form & Concept

    Curatorial Statement

    Delaney Hoffman

    While under a rock, along the shore remains rooted in photographic history through process, participating artists push the boundaries of what a landscape photograph can say, what stories should be included, and how the genre is represented. These works force us to lift up the proverbial rock to see what's underneath, to examine the dirt and the moss that's accumulated and to consider the implications of showing what has previously been unseen.

    Stefan Jennings-Batista

    Jennings-Batista interrogates histories of American landscape photography by imbuing the traditional process of albumen printing with elements of mystery and spirituality. These compositions motivate awareness of the smaller and larger universes that intersect with our own.

  • Dakota Mace at Form & Concept

    Joe Mace-Diné Elder Dahodiyinii (Sacred Places)

    Dakota Mace (DINÉ BÉ’ IINÁ)

    Mace writes, “This is Joe Mace, a Diné elder from Ojo Encino, New Mexico. This piece represents my grandfather’s childhood, one of hardship and continued survival. The spoon […] is a remnant of his childhood home, a place that today is controlled by the Bureau of Land Management. On the left is the only existing photograph of Joe as a young man. It was taken in front of Fort Wingate, the residential boarding school he attended for four years. Fort Wingate is notorious for being the starting point for the forced removal of the Diné during the Long Walk to Bosque Redondo. This led to the loss of culture, language, and the historical trauma that still affects many Diné people today.”

  • Anna Rotty at Form & Concept

    Electrical Marking

    Anna Rotty

    “I transform photographs in reference to memory, considering what gets concealed or revealed as time passes,” writes Rotty. She is fascinated by “that feeling of lifting up a rock to see what world is living underneath.”

  • Will Wilson at Form & Concept

    Connecting the Dots

    Will Wilson

    Will Wilson's ambitious ongoing project Connecting the Dots reckons with the deleterious, enduring effects of uranium mining on and around Navajo Nation (Dinetah). Grounded in a photographic survey documenting the over five hundred abandoned uranium mines (AUM) in the region, this series illuminates the existence of AUMs-sometimes mere miles away from famous landmarks such as Monument Valley and Shiprock-to ultimately explore possibilities of remediation. This installation pieces together a selection of the artist's drone-shot images, creating a visual map that opens doors for understanding and contending with the legacy of mining, among other forms of harmful land use, on tribal soil.
