Nikki Luna: Play Ground

Investigating the role of guns in violence against women, Philippines-based artist and activist Nikki Luna presents a series of cast resin lace sculptures, shaped from actual guns in past violent incidences. Their ghostly appearances act as shadows of the history, trauma, and prevailing issues surrounding culture and gender.
