OAT MILK + HXNY: Diaspora Kaleidoscope
November 14 – December 28, 2024

Opening Reception: Thursday, November 14 (6-8:30 pm)

Oat Milk + HXNY, co-curated by Tacumba Turner and Venice Pascual, is the eighth exhibit of The Future is Black Art Series.

A play on the idiom “Land of Milk and Honey”, the title Oat Milk + HXNY is an emerging idiom that highlights how aspects of BIPOC cultures are commodified, sanitized, and sold back to us as trendy or “hip” by mainstream culture. It reflects how cultural elements are often embraced, but only after being made more palatable for broader audiences. We aim to amplify the voices of local BIPOC artists,  highlighting the common threads that bind us while also celebrating the differences in our diasporas.

The exhibition features 35 artists from three diasporic communities, representing 11 ethnicities, whose authentic and individual stories weave together to form a rich tapestry of the collective experience of being a BIPOC in America. Through genealogy, ancestry, and personal experiences, the pieces in this exhibit explore the themes of connectivity, spirituality, and the essence of remembering.

 


Glass Box Vitrine:

Saige Baxter, Seeing Through the Veil

A veil does not need to be lifted to see through it.  What we choose to witness determines what we choose to ignore.  Through division, the veil falls away. This new artwork by Saige Baxter explores the artists’ experience in matrimony & separation, and considers the declarations made in marriage. 

The Glass Box vitrine is located to the right of the Brew House Gallery, in the lobby of the Brew House Lofts. Works by local artists are on public display for approximately 5 months. If you’re interested in exhibiting your work here, check out our Artist Call.
