T. J. Dedeaux-Norris Cc 2019
Walter Maciel Gallery (Los Angeles, CA) is pleased to present Breach of Confidentiality, the debut solo exhibition by T.J. Dedeaux-Norris.

November 2 - December 21, 2024

Amid the deeply personal exploration of institutional exploitation, Dedeaux-Norris grapples with the guilt and resentment that arise from feeling both victimized by and indebted to these systems. She confronts the tension between acknowledging the harm inflicted by institutions like the entertainment industry, academia, and the art world, while simultaneously recognizing the opportunities for care, growth, and advancement they have provided. This inner conflict—feeling both betrayed by and grateful for these systems—becomes a site of emergent development. It is within this tension that new understandings of self and power can be forged.
