  • “Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Seas”

    Crosstown Arts, Screening Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    “Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Seas” is composed of videos from McLean Fahnestock’s Stratagem series, where the sea and sky flip and merge to generate a new, seductive yet false horizon. Stratagems are plans or schemes that are designed to deceive. Usually referring to warfare, they are a well-executed artifice upon an enemy. Working with her interest in desire as it manifests in the landscape, these works present the ways that our desires can open a door to our ultimate deception.
