Staci Bu Shea, 2021 [Image description: fresh from being washed, a black t-shirt of a hospice guest, with the printed text “Trust the timing of your life” on the front, hangs on a dollie from a shirt hanger. The shirt is drying faster in the warm space of the boiler room of the hospice, near the laundry machines, storage goods, and tools.]

With Carmel Curtis, they co-curated Barbara Hammer: Evidentiary Bodies (2017) at Leslie Lohman Museum of Art, New York City.
