Bridget Baker
"But we look so good in our uniforms..."
June 14th - August 2nd, 2008
Opening Reception June 14th 7 - 10 PM
Bridget Baker is from South Africa, but her work is produced all over the world. Baker's practice diversely spans participatory performance, the making of intricate objects, and directing and producing extensive stills and moving photography projects. Baker is concerned with observing public and private methods of surviving the mundanity of adult responsibility, particularly tedious and difficult hourly labor. Her inconspicuous heroines (eg. The Pilot, Cindy in "Extra Soles", The Sunday Morning Wonder Woman in "Return of the SMWW") are iconic and work to prove their invicibility. With one foot set in the fiction of popular iconic figures like The Invisible Woman and Wonder Woman, the other is set in the economy of the everyday.
