This group exhibition is curated by Enrique Chagoya and features the thesis artwork of five graduating art practice MFA students: Joanna Keane Lopez, Wendy Liu, Jessica Monette, Yunfei Ren, and Pablo Tut.

As title and prelude, In the Wake becomes a lens through which we, in community, can intentionally discuss a multitude of ongoing struggles, structures, and stories engaged by the five artists featured in the exhibition — the felt memory of multigenerational storytelling and its shaping of identity, state violence and its intimate relationship to domestic space, climate catastrophe as an articulation of a nation’s perpetuation of systemic racism, legacies of transpacific migration and the ancestral offering as a call to home, regional border conflicts, Mayan heritage, and the tensions enacted through religious imposition.

On View: May 14 - June 7, 2024*
