New Red Order: Crimes Against Reality
through August 27, 2023

New Red Order: Crimes Against Reality examines the contradictions inherent in a society built on both the longing for indigeneity and the violent erasure of Indigenous peoples, lands, and ways of life. NRO provocatively questions how these desires can be channeled into something productive, sustainable, and transformative. Before it came to RedLine, Culture Capture: Crimes Against Reality was on display at the Museum of Modern Art.

Depicting the female form is a way to express the deepest, darkest corners of the artist’s inner world. For Morrell, these images are reflections of shame, fear, greed, hatred, and doubt—turned inside out and transformed.
