Aubrey Hays
Between Dog and Wolf
In negotiating my own surroundings, a process—or performance—of endurance is defined. Short-lived acts toward or within the landscape are my fight and my surrender to the untamed environment. By grappling with the uncomfortable, the disquiet, the unknown, I lay gesture to an overwhelming need to challenge isolation within these spaces, to dominate it, but also subsume to its fragmented plane.
Between Dog and Wolf examines the limits where the familiar and comfortable become the remote and dangerous. Existing on a threshold of hope and anxiety, this fear is transformed into my own relation to an ever-shifting environment. Through the perseverance of remaining within the landscape, sturdiness takes shape as the wolf appears. It is my ever-challenging paradox of intimacy and distance, which draws me to the environment, yet stands in the way of me ever fully anchoring.
