Episode 25: Reaching Out of Habit with Dean Erdmann (Teaser)

See here for full episode: patreon.com/aqnbIn this episode Steph speaks with Dean Erdmann, an interdisciplinary artist whose expansive practice attempts an investigative and sensory understanding of their queer and working-class subjectivity in the present moment, as part of a personal, familial and geopolitical legacy of inherited violence and descendent technologies. Born and raised in the Mojave Desert, Dean’s ongoing 'And, Apollo' project—begun  as a fellow at The New School’s Vera List Center for Art and Politics and New York’s Urban Glass—examines the material histories and entanglements of war, space exploration, meth addiction and masculine ritual. They use experimental documentary, video, and sculpture to deconstruct the relationship between glass and sand, speed and acceleration, fragility and power, in their highly autobiographical work replete with universal implication.
