I Love To Hate You
What does it mean to concurrently love and hate something? To experience physical and emotional attraction and repulsion at the same time? How is it confusing to be affirmed and reviled? This disorienting state of affairs embodies the artworks in the installation and solo exhibition, I Love To Hate You: The Antidote, Yesterday’s 30, and Trapped. Shown below: images from the solo exhibition I Love To Hate You at IA&A at Hillyer, Washington, D.C. (August 3 – September 2, 2018).
