Schroeder Romero presents an exhibition of recent sculpture by Marsha Pels. Dead Mother, Dead Cowboy is an expose on desire and loss. Within this confrontational installation Pels combines the personal with the socio-political. She has juxtaposed the death of her mother with the abandonment by her partner. By transforming the gender-ridden stereotypes of female/mother vs. male/lover from her own intimate specific knowledge into a more universal realm, Pels creates iconic symbols of sexual power and ironic display.
