Opening This Friday, May 1st, 7-10pm at AurorA L5P

Show Statement
“Dredged Brethren”, is a photographic installation crafted by local artist, Travis Dodd, (aka The Machete). This installation consists of temporary walls covered in vintage paper, that provide a backdrop for his Machete imagery. The photographs of “Dredged Brethren”, are mixed media inkjet prints, which represent the transition of social power between the subcultures of Generation-X and the aging Baby Boomers. Inspired by propaganda, The Machete campaign exists to answer the call-to-arms of social change, while at the same time, preserving the rebellious spirit and distrust in tradition, that Gen-X held so dear while developing its character.
