"

Drawing from the groundbreaking film Moonlight—a timeless story of human connection and self-discovery, the curator appropriates amends and recontextualizes the juxtaposition of art race and gender...Diaspora here translates to experiences and the authority that comes with those experiences. While the artists represented identify themselves as black—their walks vary drastically forcing relatability amongst this fictitious construction we call race."
