This print of 'the hollow' (2021, white ink on black clapboard) is part of Mary Ann Peters' haunting, exquisite series this trembling turf on display at the museum through January 5th, 2025.
Peters’ recent work engages with accounts of displacement including diasporic histories of the Middle East. this trembling turf was conceived after a residency in Beirut in which the artist unearthed references to an alleged mass grave beneath a golf course. A second-generation Lebanese American artist, Peters’ multidisciplinary approach to cultural archival and illuminating forgotten histories is truly compelling.
Dimensions: 12 x 16 in.
Material: Cardstock in cello sleeve with backing board
Seattle artist Mary Ann Peters (born 1949, Beaumont, Texas) finds and responds to overlooked narratives through a research-based, multidisciplinary practice that spans almost forty years. Visiting historical and photographic archives, including those in Lebanon, France, and Mexico, the artist examines minute details within records or images to bring to light new information or to contradict mainstream accounts of events. She contextualizes this research as a second-generation Lebanese American and interprets it visually through a range of mediums including painting, sculpture, and installation.
