Heat Whispers
Screening March 2013 – March 2014
Opening: First Thursday, March 7, 2013 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Erin Elyse Burns considers herself a "lens-based artist." She writes, "My artwork occupies territory between image, performance and artifact. I construct experiences that embrace struggle and the potential for failure, yet simultaneously evoke a sense of the picturesque, the humorous, the vulnerable and the absurd." Her video Heat Whispers, will be featured on e4c. Filmed within both harsh and dramatic desert environments, Heat Whispers is a meditation on the physicality of pace and the experience of place.
