Part of a collaboration with Stone Quarry Art Park, the material vocabulary in Lyric is drawn from Rustbelt Catholicism and country music. The common denominator is a collision of grace and labor. In the Dry focuses on utopian and apocalyptic thought in colonial America and the legacy of these attitudes in the climate crisis. At the fringes of religious thought, Shakerism and the theology of Hildegard von Bingen offer alternatives to the puritanical logic of dominion. In counterbalance to our current moment, they frame labor as worship and proffer interdependence and caregiving in place of individuality.
