Wound — Hanah Yendler

Fiber (embroidery and beads), 12" x 12" x 1", 2021

Presented at The deYoung Open 2023 (ID #310)

Listed for $300 *

Artist statement:

This visceral embroidery piece was born out of intense emotional rawness that I experienced in the fall of 2021, as well as a curiosity in pushing the boundaries of the format of embroidery to somewhat emulate sculptural art. Embroidery and sewing has normally been used to decorate or to mend, but this piece intentionally "rips" the fabric apart.

DALI BLUE

One of the characteristics of oil paint is that it grows transparent as it ages. When the paint is applied in thin glazes, underwork eventually begins to show through. As in Salvador Dali’s “Portrait of Dorothy Spreckels Munn” (1942) in the DeYoung Museum in San Francisco.

Blown glass

On my visit to San Francisco’s deYoung Museum last August I revisited some of the blown glass pieces I had seen previously, in 2019, and spent some time getting a better look. I wasn’t entirely satisfied with some of the pictures I shot with my phone on my earlier visit; this time I used my Canon SL2, and I think the colors and shapes really come alive! I much prefer this image of Lino…

truth or dare ask game:

🥐🔪🧃🍄🌻🥤🥑🛼(hehe)

yes Im nosey sshhh

🥐 this is an oldie for anyone who was a member of ONTD on livejournal but “i know bitch, i was watching” still makes me laugh and i still quote it to this day

🔪 weirdest topic researched for writing…probably for my undergrad thesis when i was originally planning to include baroque art, i did a deep dive into frederik ruysch’s tableaus of baby skeletons. somewhat related, his daughter rachel was one of the most popular dutch still life artists of the era yet most people don’t know her name.

🧃honestly idk if there is anything about me i haven’t posted lmao i am the queen of oversharing but um. don’t know if i’ve ever talked about how i was chosen as a freshman to present at the deyoung museum on the topic that three years later would become my thesis. it was typically an event only open to seniors but the head of the art history department was so impressed she made an exception :) also connected to that - my grad school capstone advisor was present and the first time i met with her she told me she remembered me and my presentation 12 years later. so keep researching that weird shit you like it will make an impression on at least one person lol

🍄 hmmm since it’s lesbian visibility week let’s go with cirrus/cumulus. i think they were aware of one another in the pit, even intrigued by one another but neither made a move. not until after they were summoned when one evening cirrus got into a scrap with dewdrop and cumulus jumped in to break it up. when dew accidentally swung on her, cirrus lost her whole shit. took aether and mountain holding her back and even then, they got scratched to shit and bit. cumulus, with her eye swollen, walked over to her and gently stroked her face murmuring reassuring words to her. dewdrop felt so guilty he apologized to not only cumulus but also cirrus. it was the last time they ever (physically) fought and every time dew saw cumulus with that black eye it made him sick to his stomach. and the girls? never slept without one another since.

🌻 someone i appreciate but don’t talk to on a regular basis wow this is a hard one. maybe not a specific person but to everyone who regularly likes or reblogs my fics, even if i don’t follow you trust me i see you 🩵

🥤there are so many people on here who are incredible writers but truly @anamelessfool and @the-lisechen blow me away every time. such beautiful prose that really gets you emotionally and they are both incredible at creating compelling OCs. cannot recommend them more.

🥑 if we lived on the same continent i’d absolutely say @forest-rot but other than them i’d say @bimbotheosis lmao she’s got a bigger car than me that can better hold a body and is close enough that it would be efficiently done

🛼 -> 🙊💦🍜🧎🏻‍♀️🪤

Eceyone got here at 10am. I made these delicious cheesy eggs and cut my finger badly in the process (I’m scared to check the bandage). We played hide and seek, went to the park, played with the cars, then they left for home. K and I went to the deYoung museum to see the Kehinde Wiley exhibit, which was so intense, I took a few pictures that I’ll post, including some of the thoughts of those who’ve been through the exhibit already, the artist invited people to post their thoughts on a big board. There was an Ansel Adams show that was really amazing as well and some different artists who focused on Yosemite that I really liked.

Then we took a long walk through Golden Gate Park, it was so windy. We actually saw a tree fall down right in front of us. Freaked us out. We had Mexican food and came home.  She’ll spend the night and head home tomorrow.

 I am so exhausted. I definitely woke up a little hung over and just all this social stuff is not what I’m used to, but it was so fun.

"San Francisco 1934 Waterfront Strike", 1949, Color Screenprint - Anton Refregier, DeYoung Museum

The original mural:

The Waterfront, 1948, panel 24 at the Rincon Annex, San Francisco

"This controversial panel depicts events surrounding the San Francisco dock strike of 1934. On the left, a shakedown operator demands bribes in exchange for longshoremen jobs. The center shows labor organizer Harry Bridges addressing dock workers. The right third refers to what is known as Bloody Thursday, July 5, 1934, when employers battled strikers to open docks. Two longshoremen died and many on both sides were injured."

Silent film of the 1934 Waterfront strikes

What made you interested in photography? Do you remember the first picture you took or posted?

Others art is what got me inspired. So the VERY first time I ever tried photography was in 2006 after seeing my dad's photos from when he was in high-school. He had his own darkroom he made growing up and I thought that was so cool, i wanted to try. I took a photo of my bass, changed the hue and made a 4 image collage ala pop art style (I was into Andy Warhol)

Then I didn't really touch it for a few years, but I got back into it in 2009 after going to the DeYoung museum and seeing a lot of really cool art in different mediums and styles and got so inspired.

Here's one of the first photos I took in 2009

Today I journeyed down to Golden Gate park, specifically the part that's kind of sandwiched between the Cal Academy of Sciences and the deYoung Museum. Once there I sat down on one of the benches placed around the largest center fountain and just...sat for a bit. After a decent few minutes it began to drizzle. It never picked up into a full downpour, so I stayed sitting where I was in the sprinkle of rain and midday sun. The drizzling wasn't annoyingly sporadic, and had just enough of a rhythm to feel an otherworldly calm. As I sat all I could think was

"Is this what Heaven is like? It should be."
