SUMMARY:Final Girl Infinity Portal
DESCRIPTION:Tickets \n\n\n\nPerformances by:Jasmine NyendeCreighton BaxterXina XurnerVideo from:Marcelline Mandeng NkenLiz LeeYoung Joon Kwak& more \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n“Final girls are the vessel we keep all our hopes in” – Stephen Graham Jones \n\n\n\nLooking outward and inward\, our landscape is constantly communicating. Tugging messages of grief and neglect acting as sinking pits and cracked sidewalks\, asking to be made apart of the whole again. This screening and performance night ask: What fictions serves as the jumping points of our visions of survival? What vessels of hope will we leave behind that can touch the violence of the ordinary? The final girl is a myth\, witch and spell all within itself. The viewer becomes a messenger like water\, transmuting the fear into wisdom\, demystifying the corn syrup from blood. The artists in this show question what it means to survive “whole” when the cracks appear faster than the repair.  \n\n\n\nMarcelline Mandeng Nken is an interdisciplinary artist working across sculpture\, installation\, new media\, text\, and performance. Her practice investigates how diasporic care and maintenance traditions shape conditions of belonging\, especially within queer and trans lifeworlds\, where home is assembled through chosen kinship.Mandeng Nken was a 2025 Dance Research Fellow at the New York Public Library’s Jerome Robbins Dance Division. She is a grantee of the Foundation for Contemporary Arts\, Leeway Foundation\, and a former resident of Skowhegan\, Goethe Institut Boston\, Whistle Space Summer Institute\, Vermont Studio Center\, and SOMA Summer. Her work has been presented at MoMA PS1\, The Kitchen\, Judson Memorial Church\, Mercer Union\, Karma International\, Cibrian\, FringeArts\, MCA Chicago\, and Córdova. She holds an MFA from Yale School of Art. \n\n\n\nLiz Lee\, hailing from Texas and currently based in Los Angeles\, is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is informed by critical inquiry into gender dynamics\, identity constructs and media theory. She is an alumn of the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) MFA program. Lee’s work embodies a rigorous exploration of societal paradigms. \n\n\n\nLee’s video installations subvert traditional power dynamics by positioning herself as both subject and commentator\, challenging viewers to confront their own positionality within the discourse of the male gaze. Her exploration of women as fetishized objects within contemporary culture\, prompts introspection on the commodification of femininity and the self. \n\n\n\nThrough an interdisciplinary practice rooted in drawing and performance\, Creighton Baxter (b. Arizona\, USA) transforms images and gestures through repetition. Through disjunctive strategies\, her iterative bodies of work explore themes of temporality and subject formation. \n\n\n\nBaxter’s performances of swallowing images in front of an audience have been activated at MOCA Los Angeles\, Poetry Project\, and MoMA. She has participated in exhibitions at Andrew Kreps Gallery\, David Castillo\, and Blade Study amongst others. Solo exhibitions include RIDDLE at Ceradon Gallery and hiss the name at Montserrat College of Art. Her works belong to numerous private collections and the Modern & Contemporary collection of the Allen Memorial Art Museum. Recently\, she was an SMFA Travelling Fellow while conducting research on the mechanisms of display for relics of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga\, and an artist-in-residence for BOFFO Fire Island. \n\n\n\nShe has produced exhibition writing for Et al Projects and JB Blunk Estate; and her drawing\, meeting Morgan at the horizon\, was the cover artwork for Feminism Against Cisness from Duke University Press (2024). Her artworks have been published in Contemporary Art Review Los Angeles\, Impulse Magazine\, Art Papers\, The New Yorker\, and Surface Magazine amongst others. \n\n\n\nXina Xurner/ Young Joon Kwak (they/she) is a Los Angeles–based artist whose work moves between sculpture\, performance\, and collective action to explore bodily transformation\, intimacy\, and the politics of visibility. Through materially rich and sensorial approaches\, Kwak challenges dominant modes of representation while imagining alternative ways that trans\, queer\, and other marginalized bodies might be seen and felt.Working with experimental processes such as invert-casting impressions in glitter\, resin\, metals\, iridescent crystals\, and mirrors\, Kwak creates luminous\, shifting forms that respond to light\, movement\, and proximity. These works unsettle perception and invite intimate\, sustained looking\, encouraging viewers to reconsider how bodies are perceived.
