Eutectic Gallery

July, 2022, Featured exhibition with Eutectic Gallery in Portland Oregon

This series of pieces investigates historic and contemporary narratives of power and perspective through the familiarity of the vessel, assembled as stacked parts, embedded with an accumulation of cultural objects. The recognition of the vessel form serves as an entry point to challenge the presumptive neutrality of material, and asks the viewer to step closer to understand layers of context. These pieces consider the extraction and production of tea, sugar, coffee, salt, and other systems to examine economies of control that constitute migration, occupation, commodification, and labor. With discursive content, the objects signify the monumental and mundane, function and adornment, domestic and sacred across time and place.

Who Writes History?

Apr 23 -Jul 3, 2022

Peckham Gallery, ArtsWestchester

What is the “truth”? And is there one truth, or many? Who “owns” history? Does it belong to the writers and those written about, or do we all hold a share of it as a collective? ArtsWestchester explores these questions in Who Writes History?, an exhibition that focuses on a more inclusive recounting of the past and present. Participating artists explore how images and language (together and independently) shape our collective memory and mainstream narratives. Co-curated by Randy Williams and supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts. Co-curated by Adam Chau & Randy Williams.
