Opening Reception: Performing Self

opening reception: Thursday, January 25, 5-8 pm

Performing Self is a look into how seven multidisciplinary artists celebrate the mutability of self-identity through the embodiment of alter egos or personae. There will be a short drag performance by Louis Trujillo and comments from our curator, Jane Burke.

Exhibiting artists: Tobias Fike, Noa Fodrie, Laura Lee Shill, Louis Trujillo, Eriko Tsogo, Sherry Wiggins & Luís Filipe Branco reveal how performance plays a role in the fluid construction of self-portraiture in our increasingly image-conscious culture.
