Process of Abjection

Liz Bristle researches the monstrous in works that deal with feminism through addiction, sexuality, and womanhood. The pieces are abrasive and disturbing, using every day, domestic materials in ways that disguise and question their function. Bristle’s sculptures delve into personal trauma and vulnerability to shed light on complicated experiences in human relationships. Prominent materials in Bristle’s practice are syringes, spray paint, needles, thread, and menstrual blood.  

Exhibited in Apparition, Gallery of Contemporary Art Downtown, Colorado Springs, CO, 2021.
