Imagined as objects that one may find in a museum of a future-past, Woodbrey weaves together science, mythology, and the material cultures of prehistory to the present to create work that pushes material boundaries and examines existential and socio-political aspects of climate change. Often using found objects, homegrown, and salvage materials, Woodbrey asks essential questions about how everyday objects accumulate and permeate landscapes, the body, and living systems.<\/p>\n<p>Recent solo and two-person exhibitions include <em>Midwives for a Geologic Afterlife<\/em>, INLAND, Hope, ME; <em>Gardeners for a Geologic Afterlife<\/em>, Goethe-Institut, Boston, MA;\u00a0<em>Here After<\/em> with Megan Biddle, Tiger Strikes Asteroid, Philadelphia, PA; <em>of the Sun<\/em>, Yes We Cannibal, Baton Rouge, LA;\u00a0<em>Wilder Alison + Erin Woodbrey<\/em>, Expo Chicago, Gaa Gallery, Chicago, IL;\u00a0<em>Beacon<\/em>, 201 Telephone Box Gallery, St. Andrews, Scotland;\u00a0<em>The Fragment Series<\/em>, Gaa, Provincetown, MA; and <em>Quill\u00a0Isn&#8217;t Staying Now<\/em>, with Dani ReStack, Gaa, Cologne, Germany.
