HEREDITARY
Curated By Emmanuel Massillon
December 16th - January 9th
Hereditary, curated by Emmanuel Massillon is a group show that focuses on the idea of the succession. The show centers around the notion of things which are passed down and passed along with the passage of time, through family, community, and places which we inhabit throughout our lives. A lingering memory that we carry with us on our journey, things which are held within, and expelled through the process of art making, which in turn continues the dialogues of our ever changing world and lives.
