Review of Deviant Bodies installation

Got my first review via email today of my T* installation (CEPA Gallery, Buffalo NY).

The Underground Gallery (located in the Market Arcade basement) is packed with work. Not that the space is crowded. Rather, there is a diversity of work that demands considerable time to experience properly. The first is an exuberant installation by Michela Ledwidge.

My favorite video footage was of a tranny in a leather halter and a bright purple tutu skateboarding in a graffiti-saturated cement cityscape. Footage of Ledwidge’s 2001 wedding in London is also very pleasurable to watch. It is simultaneously a private home video and a public political assertion.
