Carmen Winant: The Art of Labor

Carmen Winant, Associate Professor and a 2019 Guggenheim Fellow, discusses her work in the Whitney Biennial. Winant’s installation, “The Last Safe Abortion,” consists of nearly 3,000 photographs depicting everyday activities in abortion clinics, emphasizing the labor and commitment of the workers. She details her approach to large-scale photography installations and discusses her previous project, “My Birth,” which visually documents childbirth and the power dynamics embedded in its representation.
