ABOUT THE EXHIBITION︎︎︎
land: reflections on space & power is an ode to Newark that both honors her people and roots, while calling urgent attention to the dangers that she faces in our current political age. The combination of photography, poetry, design, and writing, embrace a storytelling process that incorporates the positionality of each artist in efforts to highlight the narratives of migration, police presence and surveillance, lack of access to clean water, and gentrification. Collectively, each section is crafted through memories and reflections that speak to these challenges that come along with the city.
