A portion of Shannon Ebner’s project “The Electric Comma” will be exhibited in Los Angeles at the Hammer Museum. Other pieces from the project will simultaneously be shown at LAXART in Culver City, CA and at the 54th Venice Biennale in Venice, Italy. Creating phrases through mixed media, “The Electric Comma” merges poetry and photography into what Ebner calls “the photographic sentence.” Ebner’s photographs were featured in Aperture magazine issue 188.
