Madison Manning’s current Bunker Projects exhibition, Forced Necessary Rest, was recently featured in Table Magazine. Thank you to Table and writer Emma Riva!

“Three years ago, on the way to accompany her partner for an interview on mental health with Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation, Chicago-based artist Madison Manning had her first seizure on a plane in the Denver airport. (“The ambulance went through the supposed underground airport tunnels people have conspiracies about. Or so I’m told,” Manning remembered). That day, she discovered she had a form of dissociative epilepsy. Forced Necessary Rest, on view at Bunker Projects in Garfield, is a culmination of her work since her life’s focus shifted to prioritizing her health and wellbeing over all else.”
