Artist: Shaunté Gateshttps://www.shauntegates.com/&nbsp; Words by Shaunte Gates:&nbsp; &nbsp; Shaunte Gates’s “The Land Of Myth” series is a psycho-geographical interrogation into world-breaking and building and the stories that often influence our identities. Through a multi-disciplinary approach - incorporating photography, painting, found texts, collage, and family portraits. Gates’s “Land of Myth” dreamscapes are a circumnavigation of the labyrinthine social constructs of race, class, and the very real physical sites wherein people enact, inhabit and perform them. Using the architecture of the District of Columbia’s public housing projects as a starting point, the artist builds compositions in search of a feeling of rootedness with a complex series of gestures, and woven layers of history, personal history, American popular culture, and mythology.

Seeking to normalize and exalt her multifaceted existence, this collection of images explores sensuality, devotion, gratitude, glory, home, family, and self. The title, Harriet’s Wildest Dreams, is borrowed from the D.C.-based abolitionist collective whose pilgrimage to the birthplace of their namesake [Harriet Tubman] sparked the creation of this exhibit. The caravan to Tubman’s home in Dorchester, Maryland, was a powerful reclamation of ancestral energy, organized for mothers who had lost children at the hands of police violence. Curated from a submission of 100 images, these photos were selected and grouped in conversation with one another. They were scaled to two walls, 39 x 7ft and 6 x 7ft&nbsp; to create a more immersive, connective experience with the work. &nbsp; Event Photography by Kirth Bobb Homage to the Unknown https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Homage-to-the-Unknown Thu, 14 Jul 2022 22:28:33 +0000 the arts activated. https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Homage-to-the-Unknown Homage to The Unknown &nbsp;&nbsp; Adrienne Gaither Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum (ACM) - Permanent&nbsp; <img width="1080" height="608" width_o="1080" height_o="608" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cbe5f6d531420200e87b24ce11139c11b50782820b8c97ef592620826e9d5da5/IMG-1433.JPG" data-mid="147898119" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cbe5f6d531420200e87b24ce11139c11b50782820b8c97ef592620826e9d5da5/IMG-1433.JPG" /> <img width="1080" height="720" width_o="1080" height_o="720" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f575431c574879ffff4d707e080488672cc00e266d8677593a35260283004b7b/IMG-1430.JPG" data-mid="147898116" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f575431c574879ffff4d707e080488672cc00e266d8677593a35260283004b7b/IMG-1430.JPG" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b409eef6f98f61c76afacced1d590b5025293aac3aa8b2cc44c6ab4de59413e2/IMG-9423.jpg" data-mid="147898114" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b409eef6f98f61c76afacced1d590b5025293aac3aa8b2cc44c6ab4de59413e2/IMG-9423.jpg" /> Commissioned and Managed for ACM, Washington D.C.Artist: Adrienne Gaither http://www.adriennegaither.com/ About:&nbsp; I commissioned artist Adrienne Gaither to create a mural for the reopening of the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum (ACM) after being closed for a year of exterior renovations. Using precise geometric shapes on a circular 24 x 12ft wall, the mural speaks to the museum's rich collection of community based artifacts. After researching ACM’s catalog we found inspiration in the museum’s collection of quilts. Quilting has a rich communal history and often mirrors the geometry seen in Adrienne’s work. A nod to a Reconstruction era quilt, there was no record of the maker, or any value placed on the soul’s story despite the vibrancy of their creation. In an effort to right the erasure of this person’s narrative, Adrienne created an homage to the unknown. Initially entitled “Anonymity in the wake of, she changed the title based on my written contextualization of the work.

A moment of pause, to rest, recharge, and find inspiration through D.C.’s local arts community. The artists selected for this project hold positions at one of the city’s oldest cultural institutions in addition to maintaining and further cultivating their respective practices. Through this partnership, we create space for emerging artists to showcase their work and connect with new audiences. Living with the artwork allows for a more intimate connection with creativity. An unveiling of sorts, guests get a glimpse of a D.C. known primarily to residents and local movers of culture. Words from Shawn about Love in Greyscale: With the evolving times of acceptance and equality, women are starting to present and express themselves free of outside opinions. Social media platforms have aided in allowing women to be seen and heard in a multitude of ways. I use my art to document this phenomena. Most of my references come from social media or friends and acquaintances from social media. I either screenshot an image from social media or request self taken or self directed photos, so the piece is viewed how the subject wants to be seen. I never stray far from the original composition or change features of the figures in the references. Though, I sometimes replace colors, add textures, or re-imagine the atmosphere. Women are tired of being told how to feel about their bodies and I’m here to capture it.&nbsp; &nbsp; Photography by Idreezus Studios Revisionist History https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Revisionist-History Tue, 12 Jul 2022 01:51:51 +0000 the arts activated. https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Revisionist-History Revisionist History: The Champions of Triumph&nbsp; Maurice James Jr.&nbsp; On View: July 1 - August 31, 2022 <img width="2160" height="1080" width_o="2160" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/171a8ed20ab22109e41439f81f6c457ac84da9b702d854ca4ceaebcb6d27fb3d/REVISIONISTHISTORY-SOCIAL-V1-3.JPG" data-mid="147637772" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/171a8ed20ab22109e41439f81f6c457ac84da9b702d854ca4ceaebcb6d27fb3d/REVISIONISTHISTORY-SOCIAL-V1-3.JPG" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/802a6cbeeac569d88a1ba5faf0d1f4840d8824952c658abed7dfd889f88cf61e/DSC05599.jpg" data-mid="147637443" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/802a6cbeeac569d88a1ba5faf0d1f4840d8824952c658abed7dfd889f88cf61e/DSC05599.jpg" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b017a081ed53aa9d395bf99751bf68e591fb55392c6b3a213dff75a31ebec1c4/DSC05540.jpg" data-mid="147637447" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b017a081ed53aa9d395bf99751bf68e591fb55392c6b3a213dff75a31ebec1c4/DSC05540.jpg" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8e328c00b1cef3496cee68eef175a59eb99d9e666b234df948082a010233b04f/DSC05548.jpg" data-mid="147637444" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8e328c00b1cef3496cee68eef175a59eb99d9e666b234df948082a010233b04f/DSC05548.jpg" /> Curated for Eaton Hotel, Washington D.C. Artist: Maurice James Jr.&nbsp;https://www.mauricejamesjr.com/ About:&nbsp; Revisionist History: The Champions of Triumph uses iconography to re-cast Black Americans as victors instead of victims, as catalysts for change instead of hidden figures. Starting with the birth of our nation, we see Crispus Attucks portrayed as Captain America. A man who ran away from slavery and fought for the freedoms of all despite the fact that his people remained in chains. Given the historical significance of the Boston Massacre, coupled with our present reality where the contributions of so many Black veterans remain unknown, this visioning creates a mainstream recognition that is long overdue. As the exhibition dances across the timeline of our existence, familiar imagery and faces taunt the mind as color and composition delight the eye. Fuel for the spirit, these revisions remind us to celebrate the identities, contributions, and experiences of all.&nbsp; &nbsp;Photography by Idreezus Studios Two Things Can Be True https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Two-Things-Can-Be-True Tue, 12 Jul 2022 02:22:20 +0000 the arts activated. https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Two-Things-Can-Be-True Two Things Can Be True&nbsp; Lindsay Adams&nbsp; On View: April 29 - August 5, 2022 <img width="1800" height="2700" width_o="1800" height_o="2700" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e8f743636c4396758f6959b6fff5eca4470ec29b6e2d57c60abb82430468ee4d/Lindsay-Adams---From-the-Old-Country---36x36---2021-.jpg" data-mid="147637697" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e8f743636c4396758f6959b6fff5eca4470ec29b6e2d57c60abb82430468ee4d/Lindsay-Adams---From-the-Old-Country---36x36---2021-.jpg" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e7c279a1570a39867b475e70b3f83eb9736b3c8833b9c1309c45a3a612e59061/DSC05495.jpg" data-mid="147637765" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e7c279a1570a39867b475e70b3f83eb9736b3c8833b9c1309c45a3a612e59061/DSC05495.jpg" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fece5e72dfb38218f53986d1fa40b42fb42d1cbe9bf5d30b6da5b9f89f9b3852/DSC05624.jpg" data-mid="147637766" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fece5e72dfb38218f53986d1fa40b42fb42d1cbe9bf5d30b6da5b9f89f9b3852/DSC05624.jpg" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3441c0b77009b66cbe13e1a291bcf16df904a951035527e2a6c6a6af6a2c36cd/DSC05516.jpg" data-mid="147637762" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3441c0b77009b66cbe13e1a291bcf16df904a951035527e2a6c6a6af6a2c36cd/DSC05516.jpg" /> Produced for Eaton Hotel, Washington D.C.Artist: Lindsay Adams https://www.lindsay-adams.com/ About The first solo show of DMV area artist Lindsay Adams “Two Things Can Be True” was the culmination of Adams’ first artistic evolution. I fell in love with her style of painting and her ability to convey contemplation, longing, love, joy and content through dreamy floral landscapes.&nbsp; Excerpt of Exhibiton Statement Written by Maleke Glee:“Two Things Can Be True” is an idiom denoting the complexity of existence. Embracing our humanity is resistance to fracture, compartmentalize and restrain our whole, complex selves. Such resistance may not be thundering but reserved with self-satisfaction. Adams’ figures and landscapes express individual self-importance through posture, gaze, tones, gradients, and shapes. The women depicted gaze forward yet convey an interest within, an emotionality uninformed by the external. &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Photography by Idreezus Studios Sika Bonsu https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Sika-Bonsu Thu, 14 Jul 2022 22:51:19 +0000 the arts activated. https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Sika-Bonsu Creative Interludes 2&nbsp; Sika Bonsu&nbsp; On view August 2022 - August 2023 <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9cc79359e4d2aa71e549f94238c5bb73542b8103fcaafedd5b98381c423a7839/DSC05093.jpg" data-mid="147899057" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9cc79359e4d2aa71e549f94238c5bb73542b8103fcaafedd5b98381c423a7839/DSC05093.jpg" /> <img width="3600" height="2400" width_o="3600" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/91d6aee65d2cc747dd7b8a1997e1164526695e18395adf6969b75ec867f34aec/DSC05088.jpg" data-mid="147898991" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/91d6aee65d2cc747dd7b8a1997e1164526695e18395adf6969b75ec867f34aec/DSC05088.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="3600" width_o="2400" height_o="3600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c0434cdbe191be36820d99eb5a0042df65db1fb4e851f208cb12013e9476f811/DSC05083.jpg" data-mid="147898918" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c0434cdbe191be36820d99eb5a0042df65db1fb4e851f208cb12013e9476f811/DSC05083.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="3600" width_o="2400" height_o="3600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7f18b6f62c04593a87f446086ed8b397cac4f99566ca130710cd8e8cd01aea3e/DSC05084.jpg" data-mid="147898982" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7f18b6f62c04593a87f446086ed8b397cac4f99566ca130710cd8e8cd01aea3e/DSC05084.jpg" /> Curated for Eaton Hotel, Washington D.C.Artist: Sika Bonsu IG: @sikabonsu_ About Creative Interludes: Eaton’s artist studio rooms invite you to a space of creative interlude. A moment of pause, to rest, recharge, and find inspiration through D.C.’s local arts community. The artists selected for this project hold positions at one of the city’s oldest cultural institutions in addition to maintaining and further cultivating their respective practices. Through this partnership, we create space for emerging artists to showcase their work and connect with new audiences. Living with the artwork allows for a more intimate connection with creativity. An unveiling of sorts, guests get a glimpse of a D.C. known primarily to residents and local movers of culture.&nbsp;&nbsp;Words from Sika about NSUO:&nbsp; Through my visual explorations I ask you to think about what defines the experience of African immigrants in America across various timelines. This starts in the present but also thinks heavily about the future - pulling on past ideas of what representation has looked like for dark skinned people. The works included are compiled and presented as a way of exploring transatlantic ideas of blackness and time. Using photography as a way to identify where we connect but also the things that connect us. The title, Nsuo, is the Ghanaian word for water. A nod to my heritage, and the idea that we can find new meaning from different perspectives. We think of Nsuo as a place to find quiet in the storm, and respite from the realities of being a black person on this planet. &nbsp;Photography by Idreezus Studios Current https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Current Fri, 15 Jul 2022 00:03:15 +0000 the arts activated. https://artsactivated.cargo.site/Current Current&nbsp; Group Show On View: February 2019 <img width="1341" height="900" width_o="1341" height_o="900" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/05f9628f68dcdd38cde0321eef9737b1e7fe48cf31c7fbb25086576790416e0e/3.jpg" data-mid="147901904" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/05f9628f68dcdd38cde0321eef9737b1e7fe48cf31c7fbb25086576790416e0e/3.jpg" /> <img width="1305" height="1001" width_o="1305" height_o="1001" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/44f3c172c994687d7040d17556337a5b801e30698053f6f63f5b2317f4c189bd/2.jpg" data-mid="147901899" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/44f3c172c994687d7040d17556337a5b801e30698053f6f63f5b2317f4c189bd/2.jpg" /> <img width="1224" height="792" width_o="1224" height_o="792" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b02e3148ae975e32862a775443662f5d1673094395a39e889eb0fffb6ca43ea0/4.jpg" data-mid="147901937" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b02e3148ae975e32862a775443662f5d1673094395a39e889eb0fffb6ca43ea0/4.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7d9d7f25cc7e094a3c9b17a4f986857fa008f3858a75dff51b51434246d999cf/IMG-1261.jpg" data-mid="147902852" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7d9d7f25cc7e094a3c9b17a4f986857fa008f3858a75dff51b51434246d999cf/IMG-1261.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f7f5850e94395332b67cdf0724bfdca30668b6df805c540cdad5d10c95b1724c/IMG-1271.jpg" data-mid="147902851" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f7f5850e94395332b67cdf0724bfdca30668b6df805c540cdad5d10c95b1724c/IMG-1271.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3d34394af2b96dce5b472c837051f752e8bd88be9c5264c681c9a560c8ce3ad3/IMG-1239.jpg" data-mid="147902850" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3d34394af2b96dce5b472c837051f752e8bd88be9c5264c681c9a560c8ce3ad3/IMG-1239.jpg" /> Curated for Latham and Watkins LLP, Washington, D.C.Artists: Dee Dwyer, Coral Anderson, Yasmeen Enahora, Maps Glover, Timoteo Murphy, Lindsey Brittain, Stephen Miller &nbsp; IG: @DeeDwyerJonts, @Yo_soy_coral, @yYasmeenenahora, @Mapsglover, @Stephanlamiller, @Lindseybrittain About the Series Current: A Celebration of Emerging Black Artists, highlighted some of the D.C. area’s talented individuals creating living history.
