AMERICAN BONES
The American Bones series is a multimedia art project that explores the origin stories of the culture of America — using projections, films, photos and paintings that the artist created during her decade-long road trips across the country. She has created a visual commentary on the cultural bone structure of America. From architecture, landscapes, portraits, and public art to the commoditization of memory that is the souvenir, the work explores the essential iconic forces of our culture industry.
From Coney Island to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk the Giant Dipper rollercoaster became the icon of the series. Both amusement parks influenced American culture from entertainment to litature to the begining of the computer revolution. One of the more popular “souviners” was the coast to coast coaster coasters, laser etched images of the Coney Island’s Cyclone and The Giant Dipper from California.
