Tracing Oblivion

Tracing Oblivion

In Tracing Oblivion, resident artist Lee Hunter will be investigating the environmental, industrial, and social histories of St. Louis.

Opening Reception:
September 19th from 7 - 10pm

Lee Hunter's exhibition Tracing Oblivion offers an alternative way to look at the landscape.

Through Timothy Morton's concept of the hyperobject, an object of massive scale and alarming complexity, Hunter investigates the many entanglements between objects, life forms, histories, time, and space. Tracing Oblivion is an ongoing and iterative speculation on landscapes that have no horizon, foreground, or background. The final results are site-specific, driven by an archival and forensic impulse that responds to places in all their uniqueness.
