WE LIVED IN THE GAPS BETWEEN THE STORIES is an homage to abortion providers, midwives, healers, herbalists, doulas, clinic escorts, abortion fund organizers, and all who care for abortion seekers. n a reciprocal act of labor, the artist grows and harvests abortifacients and emmenagogues (plants with contraceptive properties), constructs wreaths and decorative objects with them, and gifts them to abortion care workers in a ritual of gratitude.
(Since the Fall of 2019, I have conducted interviews with abortion workers and researched barriers and threats to abortion access in the USA. I have also explored ways to incorporate the production of abortifacents into a performance work, concluding that doing so is not legally feasible at this moment. My project has since evolved from educating the public about methods used in self-managed abortions to celebrating those who make abortion possible. I have begun the process of harvesting and sourcing plants to create works for a solo exhibition in June 2021 that engages specifically with abortion workers from the Midwest and Ohio, where restrictive abortion bans have been proposed. Since COVID-19, interviews have occurred by phone or video call, with the intention to meet in-person with participants in the weeks leading up to my exhibition which will include an outdoor garden space. I will seek further funding to support the completion of this work.)
GAP questions the division of corporate money, power and labor within Gap Incorporated. Specifically, GAP contrasts the CEO/President and one garment worker, employed in a Gap Incorporated-contracted factory. This project aims to draw attention to the extreme differences in quality of life and working environment between these two subjects. GAP exposes the reality of the sweatshop experience, the consequences of supporting this type of industry and offers viable ways to narrow the disparity.
