Brittany Nelson: Out of the Everywhere brings together newly commissioned texts by art historian and curator Lars Bang Larsen, curator and writer Stefanie Hessler, and poet and writer Quinn Latimer. The comprehensive essays highlight the artist Brittany Nelson’s work and veer into topics of queer abstraction, the politics of representation, feminist science fiction, space travel, and isolation. The book further includes visual contributions by artists Danielle Dean and Gala Porras-Kim, and a performance script by Gordon Hall. It is designed by Lauren Thorson of Studio-Set.
Brittany Nelson appropriates and distorts processes from 19th century photography to question representation as photographic ideal. In chemically manipulating traditional techniques, such as mordançage and tintype, she causes unprecedented reactions in the materials, which result in extraordinary abstract imagery. In continuation of feminist and queer abstraction, she unfetters photography’s constraints of resemblance to real-world referents, to include technological utopias, spaceflight and time travel, and feminist science fiction, particularly the writing of Alice B. Sheldon—who wrote under the pen name James Tiptree, Jr. to insulate herself against the misogynist attitudes cultivated in science fiction circles, and allowing her write about her own lesbian desires.
In her most recent practice, Nelson borrows from found material such as NASA photographs of the surface of Mars. By applying techniques such as the pictorial bromoil method to these images, she translates between analogue and digital media, resulting in magnificent prints that warp not only the surface and constitutive photographic features but also question the content on view.
