...artist. Though she still focuses on the small, intimate objects lying around her house, “There has been a move from a certain kind of conceptual rigor to a certain kind of poetics,” says Molesworth. “[Davey’s] earliest work, the ‘Copperheads,’ uses the camera to look very closely at something that’s traditionally not seen in a very rigorous way through the use of image and grid, while her most recent work is much more poetic, loose, and playful...

What sets the United States apart from almost any nation on earth is this conception that we are a people bound together more by our beliefs than by a common origin in some racial or ethnic “homeland.” As Tocqueville said of the earliest settlers, “they hoped for the triumph of an ideal.” It may seem trivial to some, but to call America a “homeland” is to forget what makes our nation truly exceptional.
