Life in the Anthropocene features a room-sized graph of the volume of Global Plastic Production (1950-2040), assembled with discarded plastics collected largely from the artist’s household, her office, and her neighbors.

of permutations and patterns draws inspiration from several sources including early modern botanical illustrations; the diagrams of plant circumnutation (the autonomous, cyclical movement of plants in response to environmental stimuli) done by Charles Darwin in the 1880s; and the engravings from Nehemiah Grew’s 1682  “The Anatomy of Plants,” some of the earliest studies of plant morphology through a microscope.

To many, the United States is sliding into madness and autocracy. Fueled by a cult of personality to a grifter and a demagogue, half the country cheers the spreading authoritarianism while the other half looks on in disbelief.

But some are beginning to push back. RESIST is an ongoing series that documents this growing backlash. These photographs highlight individual and collective acts of resistance by ordinary people peacefully protesting the creeping authoritarianism overtaking their country. Although the current political and cultural situation seems bleak, these acts of defiance can have a profound effect on our collective future. After all, a single grain of sand may be insignificant. But a million grains of sand can grind the gears of tyranny to a halt.

RESIST is thus a celebration of resistance and a call to action. It asks viewers to ponder the question “What are you willing to do or risk to resist?”

The exhibition celebrates work produced between 1940–1996 by well-known figures who pushed artistic boundaries to produce a pan-American visual language and spotlights avant-garde artists who defined foundational movements like surrealism and geometric abstraction. Featuring artists such as Roberto Matta (Chile), Sarah Grilo (Argentina), Manabu Mabe (Brazil), and Jesús Rafael Soto (Venezuela), the exhibition charts the cultural exchanges and creative tensions fostered by Latin American artists, whose experimentations with form, color, and movement created powerful dialogues within and beyond their respective countries.

Soft Archives: Threads and Textures of History highlights how textile artists weave fibers of individuality into a tapestry of collective memory. Featuring six early-career artists across the U.S., the exhibition examines diasporic narratives through fiber.

In this new series, Kheiriyeh draws inspiration from the love story of Zal and Rudaba, from the Shahnameh written by Ferdowsi — one of her favorite childhood narratives. Centuries ago, many Persian painters once illustrated these stories on a miniature scale. Kheiriyeh reimagines them in large-scale works that invite viewers to step inside their timeless world.

Thinggy of Their Town is a reflection of Hyunsuk Erickson’s cultural hybridity, shaped by both Korean and American influences. Through solo weaving, knotting, and crochet work, she navigates the tensions of adaptation and resistance within her identity.
