Join The GREYSTONE Collective for the closing reception of Indelible ORIGINS | Place + People: Venerate, Venerate! a solo exhibition by Chicago-based writer, maker, and cultural-worker, Talia Kimberly Wright.
Utilizing memory, word (oral and written tradition), and material object, Wright’s work aims to bridge the gap between the ancestral, traditional, and regenerated lives of African Americans who have been a part of the Great Migration. Venerate, Venerate! explores the temporality of domestic spaces and the relationships built within them. Wright draws from a wealth of personal archive, research, memoir, and visual practice––paintings, sculpture, and artists’ books––in order to venerate these well-loved spaces and the connections formed within them.
Indelible ORIGINS | Place + People is supported by Hyde Park Art Center’s Artists Run Chicago Fund as part of Art Design Chicago.
