"Time’s Witness: Works by Arden Cone and Millicent Kennedy" offers a deep and sometimes dark look into humanity by way of the objects we utilize, attach to, and eventually discard.
The found objects referenced or incorporated into this exhibition, resurrected from near disposal and raised into cultural significance, have outlived their intended use by years, or even decades.
Time’s Witness speaks to history in relation to human artifacts, investigating what they alone, or we as a society, have weathered. Both artists acknowledge memory, and even trauma, by way of its touch upon objects, people, and societies.
Through careful recording, obsessive documentation, and laborious artmaking processes, Millicent and Arden delve into the narratives told through the traces we leave behind.
