Race, Religion & Other Natural Disasters - December 11, 2009
This exhibition attempts to engage a new dialogue on the issue of race, religion and other natural disasters. When we think of natural disasters we think about an “act of God”. This act is somehow not in our control and would somehow eventually happen.
The divisive categories of race, religion, politics, economics, environment, etc are so because we recognize the “act” has happened because we have sanctioned it. It is no accident that war, world hunger, inflation and many other issues are linked to the overall collective binary beliefs that end up filibustering real change and unity amongst peoples.
This collection of artists pursues some form of investigation into these many different subjects. Will we ever be able to rise above and end the cycle? Or is destruction and divisiveness innate to the human experience? —Something we cannot control.
