About the Exhibition
Amy Beecher: tbh is a solo exhibition matching the presentational realms of comedy and theatre with sculptural and photographic installation. With this ambitious installation, Beecher positions the exhibition space as a place somewhere between pristine white-cube gallery and dark comedy club basement. The monologue of a young woman in her twenties is the soundtrack surrounding a giant, abstracted stage-set with accoutrements, creating a theatre of awkward humor and confession. Using both the drama of scale, photographic imagery, stage design and personal words, Beecher sets a scene for her protagonist to be honest with the audience.
On the occasion of this solo exhibition at Providence College Galleries, Amy Beecher will deliver a presentation on the trajectory of her artistic practice and participates in a panel discussion centered around the dominant themes of her work.
