Westward examines representations of the American West and notions of progress as seen through the Museum of Westward Expansion in St. Louis, MO. Video documentation of visitors’ interactions with Museum exhibits is juxtaposed with sound reconstructed from Hollywood westerns. The work is a meditation on that which is lost as a result of colonization and technological progress, and how our culture desires to reanimate the collective memory.
Exhibited at St. Louis University Museum of Art (2003), Cardinal Stritch University Art Gallery, Milwaukee WI, (2004), Soap Factory, Minneapolis, MN (2005).
