Curated by Kim Weston of Wábi Arts
April 2 - April 30, 2023
The exhibition Truth in Three Colors is inspired by legendary jazz artist Charles Mingus. Truth can not be bent. It can be interpreted therefore be manipulated into something else, yet the foundation of the truth remains. The selected artists take a look at what is true from their gaze and social circumstances.
Wábi seeks to bring a diverse perspective to these truth seekers as their visual stories take you on a journey of birth and vulnerability, to love and healing. Suffering and sacrifice often balance between passion and possession while hope, loss and forgiveness often existing in the same space. These artists use sculpture, photography, spray paint, collage and various materials to transform narratives based in authenticity.
Indigenous genocide, slavery, racism, chinese immigration, family, separation, love of flowers, political power, dreams lands in the African diaspora, black matter, material, and the ability to release are a few topics to explore in the many frames of truth in this exhibition. Bring your beliefs to the visual conversation called Truth In Three Colors.
