Horse Girl Theory

Kassadie Nieto is a current BFA studio art major, she is graduating this semester.

In her solo show, Horse Girl Theory, Kassadie Nieto is concerned with generational tendencies toward obsession. Through particularly obsessive processes including printmaking and book arts, the work uses adolescent imagery to explore what it means to “love” something in a culture saturated with fandom, social media, and oversharing. Where is the line between identity and performance? What pressures us to love something, to want something, and to stand for something? Are we all horse girls?
