Southern Exposure is pleased to announce an online dance performance by Sriba Kwadjovie and a conversation with the artists of Once Removed. Moderated by artist and Southern Exposure Curatorial Council Member Kija Lucas, this conversation will delve into the work of these artists who are incorporating traditional dance and textile techniques alongside new material strategies. Artists in Once Removed draw from their ancestral traditions as well as personal experiences to create works that explore tradition and belonging while living in an in-between space.
