	Consumables (11092024)



















Part of a series of sculptures exploring the literal and
figurative power of the sun. Symbolic objects like emblems, and in this case, a
house key, are cast from perishable or organic materials like butter, shea
butter, and chocolate. These items are preserved in a display refrigerator
powered by a battery system that has been charged up using the sun. Perishable symbols
that would normally melt in the sun, now rely on it to maintain their form.

	Flesh Tones Solo Exhibition



















Flesh Tones encompasses a celebration of community brought together through industry while also exposing the complicated nature of aligning identity and well-being with material possessions. Arder’s work memorializes the often obsolete, ephemeral residue of a system at a crossroads in a time of climate change. Rather than a melancholy goodbye to the proverbial, resource-intensive machine, she offers an optimistic rebirth through a demonstration of solar power. Arder harnesses the source of renewable energy to ask who is keeping whom—or what—alive in a time defined by inextricable human-machine relationships. This solo exhibition was presented at the Cranbrook Art Museum.&#38;nbsp;

	Consumables






































Part of a series of sculptures exploring the literal and figurative
power of the sun. The artist created a mold from her late father’s Cadillac
hood ornament, and cast new ornaments in shea butter, butter, and chocolate. These
symbols are preserved in a display refrigerator powered by a battery system
that has been charged up using the sun. These perishable materials represent
deeper connections between the artist’s family and the automotive industry.
Perishable icons that would normally melt in the sun, now rely on it to
maintain their form.

An experimental film charting the artist’s process and
journey toward re-rendering tools and systems of war as rituals, ceremonies and
stories of healing and liberation for Black Americans in collective and personal
archives. The work takes inspiration from the build and launch processes of two different United States Navy vessels named for George Washington Carver. &#38;nbsp;

	Two Stoned


	
		
		
	
	
		
			
				
					
						


















Two Stoned transforms rocks from the artist’s late father’s
garden into audio interfaces for sharing oral histories. Touching different
zones on the rocks triggers audio tracks to play from speakers throughout the
gallery. The audio tracks contain clips from oral history interviews featuring
the artist’s family members. Many of the stories reference the family’s
participation in The Great Migration from the American South to Michigan.

Whoop House (pronounced hoop-house)

Whoop House is a completely solar-powered sound sculpture that records and plays back instruments
and voices of community members. The mobile sculpture includes a solar energy micro-grid designed
to power popular musical equipment like keyboards, turntables, microphones, and speakers. The
modular design of the sculpture has allowed it to travel between Detroit, Flint, and Ann Arbor in Michigan, and Brooklyn in New York.

	Disco Gardens


















A social sculpture that uses the garden as a literal and theoretical site for examining the
relationship between people and plants in Black music. This project was
commissioned by Recess in Brooklyn, NY as part of their program to match
artists with justice-system-involved-youth. For this first iteration of Disco
Gardens, the artist built an indoor garden that doubled as a sound library, conversation
pit, and performance space. The project featured a small collection of vinyl
records specifically referencing gardens in their titles or subject matter.
Community members were invited to interact with the library through open
gallery hours, facilitated listening sessions, and a final exhibition
showcasing experimental album covers the youth created for each record. There
was also a live performance by local musician, Johann Diedrick, who created a
soundscape from a conversation about plants with his Jamaican grandmother. This
project was an experiment to see if people would sit together and talk about
plant-based themes in Black music.
