In the Lounge Moby Clit L. Hunter Petree
About This Show
Wading into the murkiness of her own white girlhood, L. Hunter Petree engages Moby Dick, The Great Gatsby, Annie, and The Wizard of Oz as mythical texts. Through self- interrogation, fantastical imagery, and verbal whirlpools, MOBY CLIT explores what it means to perform as a white artist and perform whiteness, calling white American foundational myths into question.
