William H. Mathers Gallery
Open for viewing October 19th, 2024.Whispers from the Divide
Arthur Liou’s video installation, Whispers from the Divide, seeks to encapsulate the tangible and intangible barriers between the US-Mexico border. Through a series of pilgrimages to key locations along the border, Liou records a first-person journey and offers an immersive experience that transcends mere observation. The bilingual Spanish and English exhibition will feature an interactive space where guests and community members can share their personal experiences of the US-Mexico border.
Divine Adornment: Community Stories of Belonging
Curated by fashion scholar Dr. Heather Akou, Associate Professor at the Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture + Design, Divine Adornment: Community Stories of Belonging uses pieces from the Museum’s collection to explore fashion from an Islamic perspective. The exhibit focuses on what fashion means to people from source communities and how they inspire contemporary makers of textiles, clothing, and jewelry. Themes of slow fashion, contemporary inspiration, making and belonging will be explored in this exhibition presented in both Arabic and English.
