Jeanine Michna-Bales Statement
Artist Statement
Jeanine Michna-Bales work explores the relationships between what has occurred, or is occurring, in a society and how people react to those events. She meticulously researches each topic – considering different viewpoints, causes and effects and political climates – and often incorporates found or archival text and audio into her projects.
Whether exploring the darkened stations along the Underground Railroad, long-forgotten nuclear fallout shelters, or the invisible epicenters of environmental turmoil, her work seeks out places that are hidden all around us in plain sight, each with its own story begging to be told and lessons waiting to be shared.
