BUNNY GIRL is screening from 1-5pm at Krowswork Gallery every Saturday through 6/4/16; and on 6/3, from 5-9pm for First Friday’s art walk; or by appointment (click contact to schedule).
Running time 28 min 50 sec: Driven by the crises state of our eco-systems and social unrest, the title character Bunny Girl combines an eroticized Playboy “bunny” with the animal of the same name and traverses landscapes that point to our dystopian present. With wry humor Bunny Girl ties the mentality which destroys our wild places without conscience, which marginalizes and threatens women and indigenous people, and which disregards human and animal suffering, to the suppression of the feminine. This work maps a range of bodily and spiritual awarenesses that women both suffer from and thrive under in an evolving earth consciousness, that nonetheless is blossoming in the face of attack.

The thing about esoteric work is that each culture’s mystic practices speak to the same truths that now neuroscience & sub-atomic physics are addressing, as science is finally understanding many things which indigenous peoples & many culture’s across millennia have known all along. Its all coming to the forefront now as humanity faces its own extinction if the dominant mindset doesn’t open to understand a few basic things…

MOSSHOUSE, “The ART FAIR in REVIEW”
“I found the curatorial presentation in Oakland based video and photography gallery, Krowswork particularly interesting. Jasmine Moorhead, the gallery director, explained how they went about translating what they do, mainly video and photography, into their small space. The focus was hybridity, while also examining video installation in as many as five projection set-ups: projected onto a flat screen with sculptural elements, projected from the ceiling onto a sculpture, a traditional projection and a flat screen presentation etc. with work by Monet Clark, Jason Hanasik, Malak Helmy, and Liz Walsh. It made the room really dynamic, and showed the exemplary work of the artists, while also creating a way for the audience to enter the work from several vantage points. Adding in the sculptural work of Mark Baugh-Sasaki, among others, created the feeling of sci-fi atmosphere, aiding the visual experience created by the projections.”
