Reception & Conversation with the Artist 

London-based artist Leah Gordon is internationally renowned for her photographs and publications on Haiti, her decades long collaboration with the group Atis Rezistans, and her role as co-founder of Gheto Biennale in Port-Au-Prince. Of equal importance are her deep explorations of class politics, anarchist thought, architecture, and the paradoxical relationship between magic and modernity.

Sacred & Profane Love Machines is dedicated to these latter concerns, connecting two distinct bodies of work entitled Reciprocity Failure and Duvalierville / The Black Dog of Civic Space, both exhibited for the first time in the United States. Alongside these projects we are pleased to exhibit a work in progress, Monument to the Vanquished, exploring the legacy of dispossession and historical relevance of the Enclosures Act. This work currently comprises of intricately hand-tinted photographs which invoke a sense of the uncanny and speak to a more Pagan and magical relationship to the land.

Presented by Power Plant Gallery and FHI Social Practice Lab.
