SUMMARY:Gallery Gathering: Roger Shimomura and Works of Resilience

SUMMARY:Gallery Gathering: Sheila Pree Bright's Cotton and Dulce Pinzón's Catwoman
DESCRIPTION:Photographer Sheila Pree Bright’s series Invisible Empire foregrounds the tension between the pastoral beauty of the American South and the historical exploitation of Black lives and labor that stains the landscape. In her series The Real Story of the Superheroes\, Dulce Pinzón centers immigrant workers whose everyday heroism takes the form of quiet sacrifice and courage in the face of often extreme labor conditions. During this Gallery Gathering\, we will discuss two artworks from these series featured in For the People\, By the People.
