Join Fellowship Award winner Samantha Box and Keystone Award honorable mention Karen Lue in a conversation about how photography can be a tool to examine, construct, and affirm multiple identities.
Fellowship Award winner Samantha Box’s series Caribbean Dreams uses constructed, experimental, and unpredictable compositions to examine structures of exodus and diaspora. Her work embodies an exploration of her multiple-diasporic Caribbean histories and identities. Keystone Award honorable mention Karen Lue is a first-generation Chinese American artist whose photographs explore aspects of identity in relation to concepts of grief, loss, isolation, and displacement. Her series 安詳 (or, when i die i want to die peacefully) relays her grandparent’s apartment in its final days and documents the artist and her family at a transitional moment in her family’s history. Hear both artists discuss their work exhibited in Fellowship 23 and join an open discussion about how photography can be a tool to examine, construct, and affirm multiple identities.
