From November 28 through December 17, Human Resources LA is excited to present, for the first time in California, A.K. Burns’ video installation A Smeary Spot (2015). This 53-minute 4-channel video installation is the opening episode of a five-part cycle of multi-media works entitled Negative Space (2012-ongoing) that draws on science fiction, theater, philosophy, and quantum theory. Setting up a parallel cosmology, A Smeary Spot invites a dialogue between ecological fragility, marginalized bodies, and their relationship to resources.
