After finding a pile of snapshots of my maternal grandmother posing with historical monuments around the US (many of the same contested monuments that I have spent years undermining as part of my practice), I began to collect photographs of other white women posing at similar sites.
This ad hoc archive is currently composed of over 500 images of white women posing with monuments to the white patriarchy. Exhibited in various iterations, the collection is deeply conscious of the ways in which the work of white women for the patriarchy is both visible and invisible.
Photographs have been sourced from family, friends, thrift shops, online auctions, and estate sales.
