SMUDGE Installation, December, 2020

Amy Hughes Braden and Alex Braden throw a pop up show in their empty home on the occasion of leaving it. Exhuming their own ghosts, invoking echoes, gathering remnants, and with windows open, quite literally airing out the space—SMUDGE senses the presence of past and future inhabitants and wonders if time is tenseless. The vacant house is still occupied: upstairs AHB presents new blobs, flat and in the round, while ARB creates a sound installation for the down.
