Death Planted a Garden

Pop Box Gallery, The Art Chose Me & Queen Street Magic Boat present:

Death Planted a Garden, on view September 6 - October 20, at Queen Street Magic Boat. 

Queen Street Magic Boat was conceived in the historic home, garden, and studio space of artist, organizer, and dive instructor Catherine Edgerton as “a surrealist hub for building and sustaining visionary community connections through water, the arts and wild imagination." 

Death Planted a Garden is a uniquely immersive art experience featuring 21 Triangle-area visual, sound, literary, and multidisciplinary artists exploring their lived experiences of loss through activation of the entire property: the house, outbuildings and the land. “If death is a moment, what follows is timeless and fluid. In these post-mortem ecologies, we plant orchards, we fall off wagons, we fuel spaceships, we follow mirages, we float on life rafts. The harvest is at once devastating and gloriously expansive”.

It Ain't All Black and White

It Ain't All Black and White is coming to Durham!! This deliberately curated collection of black and white photographs will be hosted by the DAG Truist Gallery at 120 Morris St. Durham, NC 27701 April 19, 2024 through June 6, 2024. 

Please join us on April 19th at 6pm to celebrate the occasion!! 

Statement:

Black people are often asked to shrink their complex emotions into two categories, joy and pain; sitting high on joy as a reaction against the impact of colonization or burdened by pain that is exploited as the focal element in galleries, news, and social media. It Ain’t All Black and White is a photography exhibition that encourages us to consider emotions such as serenity, apprehension, yearning, and more. Captured by 11 dynamic photographers dedicated to documenting the fullness and complexity of Black life, this exhibition offers each of us an opportunity to see ourselves with renewed attention.
