Exhibition

Curated by Jeffreen M. Hayes, Ph.D

As a microcosm of our society, the art world maintains a system of marginalization based on racial and cultural difference. Artists identified as "other" function in silos, just as they do in society. This exhibition presents eight artists who examine these silos, otherness, and the cultural and social ramifications of marginalization based on one's identity, whether self-defined or inscribed. Bearing witness, as these artists do, not only identifies the pressing issues of our time but also challenges the norm of marginalization, absence, and exclusion. Through the work of Wanda Raimundi-Ortiz, Duron Jackson, Yaw Agyeman, Wesley Clark, Wilmer Wilson IV, Stacy-Lynn Waddell, Ellington Robinson and Nathaniel Donnett, Silos gives voice to the silence(d).
