Deephaven<\/em> is a place imagined by Sarah Orne Jewett in her 19th\u00c2\u00a0century novel of the same name, where age trespasses the confines of the body, and multiple versions of self intermingle through unfixed time. The videos curated by Amber Christensen in\u00c2\u00a0Hanging Out in Deephaven<\/em> adopt a similarly ambiguous relationship with the concept of age. Both irreverent and sincere, they conjure curiously circuitous moments by performing a form of temporal drag that languishes in-between adolescence and adulthood.<\/p>\n

In these videos, past and present jumble and bump against each other, looking back in a manner that is neither random nor precise. This is not\u00c2\u00a0The Wonder Years<\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u201dthere is no overly saccharine narrator interminably pining over their childhood love. Instead, the videos come together in a sort of polyrhythmic rambling through the back alleys of adolescence.<\/p>\n

In\u00c2\u00a0Hanging out in Deephaven,<\/em> the invocation of an aesthetic of adolescence is light on sentimentality and nostalgic yearnings. This is not to say that the videos lack sincerity. They are unabashedly gawky in their temporal restructuring, creating new potentialities and providing an empathic portal into an anachronistic coming of age.<\/p>\n
