Tinsquo's curatorial project, Adjacent To Life, presents 2021: A Year, A Life by Elizabeth Hatcher-Williams.
Elizabeth Hatcher-Williams is an artist and archivist currently working in Brooklyn, New York. Her work focuses on the insight to be found in the routine of the mundane. She approaches her task as a curator with a commission to identify and share those truths.
“This exhibition represents the public offering of my ongoing personal archive. As part of an annual, year-long artistic project, I undertook the challenge of recording my year in film resulting in approximately 432 images chronicling the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic. These images are an extension of my 2020 project, in which I took and printed a physical photograph every day, unexpectedly benefiting from the kismet of foresight that it would be a year worth documenting.“What’s presented at Adjacent to Life is my attempt to share the narrative of one year as it appears in reflective consideration. The richness of my personal archive (journals, outtakes, playlists, screenshots) serve to document an ordinary life; its curation and circulation is simply an offering to make that life observable.”
2021: A Year, A Life is her second exhibition at the Adjacent to Life gallery, and her first solo show. This collection continues the artist’s exploration of the personal archives we are all unconsciously driven to create and the artists’ innate ability to realize those interior glimpses for our collective consciousness.
The exhibition is on view through September 29 at the Adjacent to Life pop-up gallery housed in Ninth Street Espresso (341 E. 10th Street at Ave B, New York City). The opening reception is Friday, September 9, 7-9 pm.
