Description
Through the mediums of text, performance, film and virtual interaction, SFAI graduate students Hannah Piper Burns and Kevin Joseph Laccone realize experiences of intimacy-real and imagined- that resonate viscerally for the viewer. For Hannah Piper Burns intimacy is manifested through an examination of past and present relationships that conflate, in the words of artist, “[to]…tell a narrative of the pain and hope inherent in romance and the psychological and emotional risk of giving of oneself to another.” Kevin Joseph Laccone, conversely, approaches the theme of intimacy by juxtaposing situations of eroticism, abjection, reflection and spiritual endurance; thus, speaking to the multiple readings that a loaded-word like ‘intimacy’ can project.
