Threshold: Recontextualizing Self-Portraiture aims to bring attention to the medium of self-portraiture through the act of taking back the narrative of one's own story. Artists including Jon Wes, Lorena Molina, Adama Delphine Fawundu, and many more explore themes of race, class, sexuality, and the body, allowing this exhibition to be a platform for artists to speak about their experiences on their own terms.
Curated by Jillian Marie Browning, Assistant Professor of Photography at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, this exhibition will open on January 27th, 2023 and remain open through May 27th, 2023. An opening reception will be held on January 26th, 2023, featuring a presentation by the curator and the official opening of the gallery. If you would like to attend this event, please register via our Eventbrite here.
