In Beaten with a Hammer, Marfa-based artist Bettina Landgrebe uses over 500 hearts to bear testimony to the war against the female body. Her haunting installation composed of suspended hearts confronts audiences with the issue of femicides. The work highlights the reach violence on gender can have in a community and how it can disrupt a culture.
