Marley Trigg Stewart: The Hills Keep Burning in California
July 8 – August 10, 2022

“The selection of work on view in the exhibition is an amalgam of personal history that acknowledges the unknowability of the past and how it haunts the present. Trigg Stewart began working on a series of photographs during the summer of 2020, a time marked by the convergence of the COVID-19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter protests. In that charged summer, Trigg Stewart discovered that his estranged father’s brother, Greg, died of AIDS related complications on Halloween in 1991, two years prior to his own birth in 1993. Set against the backdrop of a cross country trip Trigg Stewart took with his partner, this news instigated an exploration into family archive, landscape, queer ancestry, and memory. ”
