Cervine: Out of Darkness
About this event
Art show by artist Shannon Thomas.
Cervine: Out of Darkness is an ongoing series chronicling the artist’s journey towards healing and self acceptance after surviving rape and sexual assault. In 2016, during the immediate aftermath of one such experience, the artist created her first depiction of the cervine women as a metaphor for the ways in which she felt she had been hunted, targeted, and subjected to violence. The depiction of the head of a deer on the body of a woman created a striking and haunting image that echoed the ways in which the artist felt she had been dehumanized and reduced to nothing more than her sex at the same time that it created an image that was ethereal, disturbing, and powerful.
