Brooke Schneider: See What Makes the Noise Inside
See What Makes the Noise Inside
Medium: tea bags, rice starch paste, linen thread, plywood
63 x 44 inches
Predominantly sculptural, Brooke’s works explore how the American South is tied to the history of labor, and its relationship to collective memory. Just as our corporeal bodies are living vessels, the objects that we possess or utilize become signifiers, landmarks, touchstones - physical reminders of a life lived.
It’s here that Brooke’s sculptures carry particular significance. Selecting physical materials as carefully as she sifts through her own history, Brooke gathers found objects, flora, and everyday artifacts (tea sachets hold main court in several works) and reconstructs them into physical narratives through assembly, sculpture, and transmutation.
