I'm Trying to Tell You Something is a visceral documentation of Intimate Partner Femicide by interdisciplinary artist Jennifer Leigh Harrison that explicates issues of erasure and denial through painting, performance, and installation. Recognized by the UN as a “shadow pandemic,” the issue is even more pressing with the current political rise of hegemonic masculinity, social control, and the dismantling of critical research, social and welfare services created to protect women. Harrison references "patriarchal terrorism" as not being a simplification of men killing women, but a consideration of the many undocumented murders that reveal a broader issue of power and location.
