Presented in conjunction with the Southern Graphics Council conference, Parlor is a mixed media installation, combining fine art printmaking processes with digital imaging technology and sculpture, which seeks to visually depict aspects of post­September 11th American culture. With this installation, Aaron Wilson explores an amalgamation of reactions to 9-11, from immediate fear and horror to a web of relative effects including auto loans with zero-percent financing, action figures of the president, internet images of crying eagles, a reevaluation of civil liberties, and an ongoing war on terror. Parlor is Wilson’s expression of a changed society propelled by the collapse of the World Trade Center.
