OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | In the Bulawayo to Bennington: Diasporic Rendition, Blackness as Liberty exhibition, the artist aims to orient a visual representation of the African Diaspora within the medium of the image. This project spans 4 years of work made across continents and explores the diverse and multi-faceted nature of what it means to be a diasporan, how representation is inherently linked to identity, and whether or not any kind of return to ancestry, to home, or to the self is possible once lost.

CAMPUS COMMUNITY ONLY | The “Living Room sessions” are a space for all the different stakeholders at Bennington College to come together and contribute to our mission, values, and strategic planning work. This session is for BIPOC community members.

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | How can writing about food open up evocative spaces of comfort, family, ancestral lineage, memory, shared rituals, and desires?
