Reliquaries for Clinging and Letting Go (2020-2022)
Stacia Yeapanis' remix video "Stay Right Where You Are" borrows clips from over 50 scripted television shows. Edited throughout the pandemic, it explores the multitude of emotional responses—both petty and profound—to life’s unexpected turns. The characters connect and argue across the boundaries of their shows, trying to cope with change and upheaval as the pandemic unfolds around them.
Originally screened via Zoom in accordance with pandemic-era practice, "Stay Right Where You Are" will be viewable here throughout the run of "Reliquaries for Clinging and Letting Go" (December 12, 2021 - January 9, 2022) at Material Exhibitions (Chicago, IL).
