The Space We Exist In, curated by Ghanaian-American art curator Larry Ossei-Mensah, serves as a platform for rich dialogue and self-reflection for both the artists and viewers by questioning what it means to ‘Hold Space’ or ‘Exist Within a Space.’ This exhibition features a diverse ensemble of visual artists whose practices create visual poetry that invites viewers to actively engage with the artworks. The exhibition fosters a deeper connection between art and the audience by challenging viewers to redefine their perceptions of the world and their place within it.
