“...the theme granted throughout this world is one of calm, as if we’re summoned to drift alongside her in an era of pure salvation. At the heart of the exhibition, we greet Hunter, in her familiar nude presentation, set against a hallucinatory cosmic-toned palette, but this nude body brings something contextually different. By grounding in communal rituals like Swim Club, Hunter challenges the notion that personal transformation happens in isolation. For her, healing trauma is collective, nonlinear… buoyed by joy and connection. By referencing the restorative properties of nature and friendship, the audience is encouraged to take pause. To float, in spite of the catastrophes outside our door. It’s understood that, yes, peace of mind is hard to keep, but here, perhaps, we’re suspended in it.”
