1ST ANNUAL HIGH SCHOOL EXHIBITION
EXHIBITION DATES: MAY 3RD-MAY 30TH
"How did we get here?" is a two-person exhibit by Jeff Corwin and Tulika Ladsariya. Their work collectively explores their personal narratives at an unprecedented time and reflects our own inward struggle. Jeff's journey starts with his father's death and takes us through his exploration of gun violence. "The images are not subtle. Nor is the subject matter. The violence that we face every single day is very real". Tulika shares her story as an immigrant mother and reflects upon borders as layered abstract spaces. Drawing from the quote "When we tell our own stories, it shapes who we are, how we grow, survive and blossom", she struggles with the notion of the outsider and the fragility of the desire to be 'American'.
Their work offers us a space to reflect on "How did we get here?" It also offers opportunities to look for ways to connect our meaning, our truth, our community with the larger story of America. We don't always know our destination but we can cherish the paths that we choose. Through collaboration and discussion, we can look outside our echo chamber and search for a more cohesive reality. We can dare to hope for more equality, more justice, more connectedness, more acceptance and eventually, more freedom.

1ST ANNUAL EXHIBITION: PHOTOGRAPHIC PROCESSES & MORE
1st Annual Exhibition: Photographic Processes & More will feature work by Aaron Wilder, Alkebuluan Merriweather, Barbara Nati, Camille Silverman, Darren Oberto, Erin Patton-McFarren, Francisco Malave, Jim Brady, JoAnn Terry, Julie O’Connor, Nemanja Zdravkovic and Ozzie Stern. The exhibition highlights traditional photographic works such as landscape photography & still-life and also explores work that pushes the boundaries of real versus digital. Digital collagist Barbara Nati, self describes her work “...like postcards from the future” by “using digital montage techniques, Nati creates dystopian visions of the future.” Aaron Wilder, on the other hand “blurs the boundaries between the analog and the digital, the public and the private”...and Camille Silverman presents work as a reflection of living through a pandemic, what she labels as “the Pandemic Insomnia Album (PIA)”, rethinking assumptions about form and boundaries. The exhibition represents a collection of new and emerging as well as established artists/photographers.
