Erin Leland: Critical of Tan
@ ACRE Projects
1913 W 17th St, Chicago, IL 60608
Opening Sunday, January 30th, from 2PM - 6PM
Erin Leland’s Critical of Tan, a series of glances askew at herself, began with photographing strangers as a live mannequin through a shop window, continued with attempting to reclaim explicit photographs inadvertently inherited by two Midwestern strangers, and includes Accidental Sightings, a poem chronicling her attempts to avoid her image in reflective surfaces. At the heart of all the work is their existence as encounters. She is currently reinterpreting her own image through autobiographical retellings.
