Loretta Fahrenholz. Trash - The Musical Fluentum Issue 4

The film Trash The Musical (2023), from which the exhibition also takes its name, was elaboratedby Loretta Fahrenholz over the last two years in collaboration with performance artist Alicia McDaid. Assembled into a wild post-cinematic collage by Fahrenholz, McDaid's performances are a radical exploration of personal anxieties and questions of aging, unfulfilled dreams, ghosting, and the difference between art and trash. Two new image series, Once Upon a Time in Enemy-Occupied France and i make mistakes just to learn who i am (both 2023), are a continuation of Fahrenholz's interest in the processes of digital imagery.
