Opening Reception for “A Subtle Likeness” and “Memoirs of a Watermelon Woman”

An exhibition celebrating the legacy of queer filmmaker Cheryl Dunye and the twentieth anniversary of her seminal film The Watermelon Woman

This exhibition explores notions of biomythography and non-traditional archiving through performance, photography, collage, video, and sound installation to collectively merge personal histories and recontextualized narratives to hold space for a queer, Black radical tradition
