Two speakers from the "bonus room" of a cul-de-sac Brady Bunch house purr the Ray Orbison song, "Only the Lonely": that's what Joshua Smith's "Untitled (speakers)", installation consists of. And it speaks to our collective solace, memory, and genuine longing for nostalgia. The suburbs of our minds coalesce with the soundtrack of our youth, and maybe even our parents' youth. Over and over the song plays, and the words make little distinction between empathy and sympathy, leading to personal, not universal soliloquies. Devon Dikeou |
