Overview
Barrada turns her lens to two “weather acceleration” facilities in Miami and Phoenix dedicated to testing the durability of consumer products. Moving between the two laboratories and their surrounding landscapes, Barrada signals the visible consequences of natural and manmade environmental distress. She entwines a specialized visual vocabulary of age and decay with an exploration of motherhood, inheritance, and subjectivity.
