Installation

Each year, more women undergo treatment at hospital emergency surgical services as a result of family violence than rapes, muggings, and car wrecks combined. This startling statistic is the basis for a series of site-specific installations on domestic violence, On The Edge Of Time. Underground, the first installation for the Pittsburgh Three Rivers Art Festival, used three wrecked cars strewn along a 180-foot section of railroad track to reference the history of Abolition and the Underground Railroad, and as metaphors for different aspects of abuse.

Millie Wilson is an installation artist whose work proposes a relationship between modernist art practices and modernity’s production of deviance, particularly regarding lesbian stereotypes. She uses humor, parody, and beauty as disruptive strategies to insist on a dyke presence in postmodern revisionism. Wilson has exhibited her work internationally and is on faculty at CalArts.
