Marlene McCarty: "Into the Weeds"

Marlene McCarty will premiere a two-part installation in Buffalo, N.Y., that features a forest of drawings, a compost pile and an earthwork composed of poisonous plants—a living, growing monument to the deep past and near future.

At this time of social and political upheaval, McCarty’s "Into the Weeds" asks: years of colonization, capitalism and industrialization have brought us where? To the wasteland? Her forest of drawings, seedlings, indoor garden, outdoor earthwork (A Deliverance Garden), and composting system (Demonstration Site), point to the detritus of late-stage capitalism, yet also show that life re-emerges despite humanity’s destruction.
