Amber Hawk Swanson makes durational performances, lifeworks, and sculptures (more...). She is currently revisiting a component of her Amber Doll Project (2005–11) that involved archiving cinematic rape scenes and shopping for equivalent costumes worn by each film’s victim at the fast fashion retailer Forever21. This component of the Amber Doll Project, then titled Costume Sketches, went viral in 2007 resulting in the project’s research-based contours being overwritten by sensation.
Hawk Swanson recently worked on The Harmony Show along with Davecat and Sidore Kuroneko.
