Inspired by the 1983 poem “Remember” by United State Poet Laureate Joy Harjo, this exhibition features pieces from Amber L. DuBoise-Sheperd, Jarica Walsh, Kristin Gentry, Shelby Rowe, and Kindra Swafford. Their works evoke themes of history, memory, and identity. Utilizing various mediums, they capture the literary spirit of the poem – the experience of discovering one’s self and place in the universe, reflecting on our connections to the natural world, and remembering the ancestors that make us who we are.
