Opening Oct 14 Charles Campbell: An Ocean to Livity. From the intimacy of a quiet inhalation to the distance between continents, this exhibition brings together metal and mixed media sculptures along with immersive and participatory multichannel audio installations. Tapping into the fecundity of the Black diasporic imagination, Campbell reconstructs and reinvents lost connections, lamenting the violent disruptions of the past while constructing a home for Black communities’ strength of being. The artworks in here evoke a sense of journey, worldly interconnectedness, and communal struggle against the injustices of times past and present, geographies far and near.
