Interview with Nada Elias-Lambert: Weaving a Local Feminist History

it was brought to my attention that i should have specifically said “black people,” so reblog this if your blog is a safe space for black people
people saying the car scene was in eighth grade for “shock value” are …….. so dumb. that scene was painful and heartbreaking to watch, yes, but that’s because it’s a reality. i have never seen anything that so accurately addresses the way boys take advantage of younger girls. the way he was joking with her, the way he tried to disguise it all as a game, the way he insisted he was trying to help her, it’s all uncomfortable to watch because that happens ALL the time to young girls. the fact that kayla got home safely and nothing went further proves that bo burnham didn’t put that scene there to break down kayla or cheaply “shock” the audience. he put it there because he’s trying to make an authentic movie about what pre-teen girls go through and no one ever acknowledges that /that scene/ is part of it.

why none of them got into The Good Place
What I love about this is its acknowledgment that Jason had no intentions at all
this is all 100% true but it always made me really mad that Chidi’s “crime” was having a severe anxiety disorder like he needed understanding and therapy, sending him to the Bad Place for something he had literally no control over was incredibly fucked up
I feel like a less-surface theme of the show is that they’re all in a situation where they have been forced into bad patterns by forces outside their control - Chidi has SEVERE anxiety; Eleanor was forced by abuse and neglect to adopt a self-centered attitude from early childhood and, like many people with traumatic pasts, responds by not dealing with difficult emotions; Jason was very overtly raised in an environment where he got no education and all his models for behaviour were criminal and/or self-destructive; and Tahani has been raised in an environment where everything is performative and she is shot down for any genuine expression of unhappiness or non-material want. Just as Michael and Janet are made one way but changed by their experiences, the moral of the story is that things outside your control shape you but you can move away from them. That could easily be really insulting, in a sort of ‘just get over it’ way, but the idea isn’t that they change solely because they decide to be better - all six of them change because their circumstances change and give them the OPPORTUNITY to be better, because they’re finally given the support system they lack.
I like The Good Place because the whole show has since day 1 been predicated on the idea that black and white moral judgements made in a vacuum are bullshit, and that moral choices are informed by things outside our control, whether that be education, behaviour modelling, unfair treatment or mental health issues. That doesn’t mean we aren’t responsible for our actions but it DOES mean we have to understand morality in the context of people’s varied experiences AND asks for the possibility that if their environment is improved, their ability to function as moral agents also improves.

Fine Print!
As a curatorial intern at the Fred Jones Jr., Museum of Art, I worked on the exhibition “Fine Print! Posters from the Permanent Collection.” The exhibition ran from January 26 – May 27, 2018. My work for the exhibition included researching works, writing labels, and choosing works for the 1972 Olympic poster section. Below, I have the labels for the section and works.

Solitude in the City presents a selection of twenty prints from TCU’s Permanent Art Collection that explore the shared human experience of feeling alone or isolated within the crowded urban landscape. The commonality of this experience is evident in the cross-cultural nature of this exhibition covering the span of the twentieth century, which includes American Photorealist works, Japanese woodblock prints, and architectural etchings from Italy and France.
Artists featured in Solitude in the City include John Baeder, Charles Bell, Arne Besser, Thomas Blackwell, Carman Bonanno, Hilo Chen, Paul Geissler, Anthony Gross, Okie Hashimoto, Isamu Hayakawa, Elizabeth Keith, Ron Kleemann, Beatrice S. Levy, Noel Mahaffey, Tokuriki Tomikichiro and C.J. Yao.
The sense of solitude in the works is often depicted through urban scenes where figures either appear alone or look upon an unoccupied street scene. Without a narrative of human interaction, everyday scenes and objects move from the commonplace to a state of artifact. The mood of personal separation evidenced in this collection parallels the museum experience in which a visitor can feel simultaneously apart from and part of their own culture.
While solitude can be isolating or transforming to those who experience it, it is often associated with a negative experience. Aloneness for some can signify a lack of connection to the people around them, especially in the city, where interconnectedness is a function of the setting. However, solitude can promote both rejuvenation and isolation. The works featured in this exhibition suggest an attempt by artists to come to terms with ideas of interconnectedness and detachment as a consequence of modernity in the twentieth century.
Elizabeth Theban, Emily Dorward, Jen Earthman, Jennifer Yuhas, and Dr. Babette Bohn at the exhibition opening.
The exhibition was curated as a part of the class “The Art Museum” at Texas Christian University. I worked alongside Emily Dorward, Jen Earthman, and Jennifer Yuhas to complete all aspects of the exhibition from selection, research, design, and publicity.
For the exhibition, we held a guided tour of “Solitude in the City.” The tour included an overview of the works, and showcased of materials and processes related to works on paper. Curators Emily Dorward, Jennifer Yuhas, Jen Earthman, and myself divided the tour into sections, with each person taking the lead to talk about the works and processes they had covered in the catalogue.
The digital catalogue for the exhibition is available here.
