The Gap, and more.

Pulling from earlier projects reworking “dazzle camouflage” – a WWI technique of painting battleships with graphic black and white patterns in order to confuse enemy aim the disruptive outlines shift the viewer’s attention from foreground to background in an attempt to “find” the false subject. Black and white calibration charts encroach upon the pictures, and in some cases overlap and cover portions of the figure, as if insisting on their ability to "correct" the situation.

Works from this series are held in several prominent museum collections, including Museum of Modern Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, 21c Museum Hotels, and University of Michigan Art Museum, among many others.

Marie Watt Cradle, 2011-2022 Cast bronze, fabricated at Walla Walla Foundry, Washington x 15 1/2 x 7 inches

Marie Watt's bronze sculpture Cradle (2011/2022), produced in collaboration with the acclaimed Walla Walla Foundry, references her blanket stack sculptures, in which Watt an enrolled member of the Seneca nation with Scottish and German ancestry sources secondhand textiles (many of which are donated to her) to honor Indigenous traditions of gifting blankets to those who witness major life events, such as deaths and births. In creating this bronze, Watt folded small blanket segments, assembling them into the form of a mobius, where two interlocking circles are infinitely intertwined. This form references Watt's interest in how Indigenous communities call back to their ancestors while calling forward to future generations, and how Indigenous communities hold space for the past, present, and future. Through a mold-making process, the textiles are encased in wax and burn away in a kiln, leaving behind an impression out of which a wax mold is created. From this mold, the sculpture can be cast in a variety of materials like bronze or resin that are studier and more “permanent” than the original blanket stacks.

Bronze is an important material to Watt, as it also points to the history of metalwork in Seneca tribes – many Seneca metalworkers, for example, worked in construction when Manhattan’s first skyscrapers were being built. Watt is also interested in the material transformation that takes place when her blanket stacks are reimagined in bronze: when she creates a mold with her foundry, the original blanket scraps are ultimately destroyed in the kiln. Watt is fascinated by this tension and how, in this casting process, something is destroyed to create something new, which relates to the form of the sculpture itself: the mobius, which suggests a life cycle of continuous beginnings and endings.

Artist statement:

This is the first piece in this series, prompted by the enveloping experience of light on horizons and the poetry of Joy Harjo (in particular her collection 'American Sunrise' and more specifically the poem, Singing Everything) that has three jingle forms, in contrast to two. The two forms relate to my interest in twinning language, the history of call and response, and in an Indigenous way, a call back to our ancestors and forward to future generations. In this evolution, I've been thinking about the Seneca and Haudenosaunee Three Sisters (Corn, Beans, and Squash) and the numerous associations with three as a magic number.

Ana Teresa Fernández y Narciso: Aseando el Sonido de Violencia (Performance Documentation in Rodeo Room) #3, 2008/2023

There is no way of being mute in this building. Any noise, especially footsteps, echo wildly within the cavernous building of the Headlands Arts Center. One can only imagine the pumping sound of stomping boots marching to orders decades back when this site was an army barrack. The sounds of the military have seeped into the history of these halls.

As an artist-in-residence in 2007, I decided to erase these sounds of violence and rewrite a new opus. I took the myth of Echo & Narcissus: Echo, who is not allowed to speak for herself, repeats the end of Narcissus’ phrases, holding no words of her own, while Narcissus is blind to his own reflection. A metaphor to most causation of wars; the inability to communicate.

In Eco y Narciso, I’m on the floor on my hands and knees looking into my own shadow. I wiped away and replaced the sound within those halls of the Headlands by mopping the Rodeo Room with my own hair. The sloshing and slapping against the wooden floors reframing the history of male marching. First softly, growing into a crescendo, my hair marks a new tempo of female strength insisting to be heard, over and over and over again.

Born in Mexico and based in the Napa Valley, Arleene Correa Valencia creates textiles and works on paper that reflect on patterns of migration and family separation. In her compositions, Correa Valencia depicts parents and children in silhouette as they cross the border. Outlined in thread, the figures in her work are both present and absent, seemingly in a perpetual state of transition A Dreamer and (until recently) formerly undocumented migrant, Correa Valencia often incorporates textiles sourced from her family, gesturing to her own border crossing and attempt to seek opportunities for a better life in America. Correa Valencia is the inaugural recipient of Headlands Center for the Arts’ Bay Area Fellowship and a 2023 Eureka Grant recipient from the Fleishhacker Foundation. In Fall 2023, Correa Valencia will be featured in a solo booth at The Armory Show in this year’s Focus section curated by Candice Hopkins.
