MOIST ROOTS
MOUTHFULS
ORBITS
OBEY
UNWARD AS QUESTION
Borderlands (2023) is a series of silk screen prints in which Geyer weaves a poetic text with images of the German forest. The artist takes the German forest of her childhood as a framework to explore the ways in which fascist ideologies draw on notions of 'nature' and 'natural' for their dissemination. Borderlands reclaim the forest as a space for queerness and resilience, recalling Geyer’s personal relationship to the space as a queer teenager foraging in the woods. Stitched silver threads on silver paper results in a visually precarious surface and a ghostly presence.
