It's dark on my way home, after the December sun, on the transcan between the casino and the Petrocan. Driving snow and the Sunday traffic keep me from peace. Some boys outta Golden nearly ran me off the road, a lifted truck and a trailer of sleds. Another thing I've become accustomed to on the weekly commute. I'm still 30 minutes from home.
On our bedroom floor there's a pile of laundry that needs doing. The coin operated machines downstairs, past the basement neighbors door with that small dog that won't shut up. I've gotta remember the sheets and the bit of clothes you need done. I'll struggle to stay awake for the end of the cycle, but I'll enjoy getting to hear about your day...

My Hair is Getting Longer
Frankie Elouise 27.09.2024-18.10.2024
Reception September 27 2024 7PM - 9PM
"My Hair Is Getting Longer" visualizes the intersection of shame and joy, particularly within the contexts of femininity, womanhood, and trans experience. This exhibition explores how critiques of expression are deeply ingrained in everyday thinking and begins the process of unpacking internalized gender norms. It invites viewers to reflect on how these intersections not only reveal the complexities of navigating societal expectations but also highlight the profound ways in which joy can emerge and transform amidst these challenges.
For her debut solo show, Elouise draws from everyday experiences and personal identity exploration, often incorporating objects and details from her life. Her work focuses on stretching and contorting figures while distorting perspectives to challenge conventional views and play with body language. Through both personal and universal narratives, she confronts and reimagines traditional stories around femininity, creating a space for introspection and connection.
