Starting with a Mayan creation myth about the male sun poking out the eye of the female moon because she was too bright, Spatial Geometries examines the balance between planets, solstices, space exploration, and male and female. Woven throughout the scientific drawings and diagrams are snippets of the testimony from the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings. Produced as Artist-in-Residence at Visual Studies Workshop, Rochester, N.Y.
