A GRAMMAR BUILT WITH ROCKS

A GRAMMAR BUILT WITH ROCKS—a two-part group exhibition at Human Resources and ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives at the USC Libraries, curated by Shoghig Halajian and Suzy Halajian—“presents artistic practices that trace the racialized and gendered relationship between bodies and land, and question narratives of socioecological crisis that contribute to the displacement and erasure of people and collective formations.

“The project appropriates its title from Édouard Glissant’s writingsas it looks to the ways in which the landscape contains, unfolds, and narrates its own history.”*

In a related program, Jumana Manna’s WILD RELATIVES (2018) will screen at Redcat in December.
