"In the current exhibition, Set Dressing, Smith hones [their] ability to direct a deeply feminist, materialist look at the way history is 'made' -- for the sake of critically queering the world (to come). [Smith] makes us astutely aware that the way we handle the past speaks volumes about the way we (will) handle one another, now and in the future." -- Nicole Archer, exhibition catalog
