Archives shape our understanding of the past and influence how we imagine the future. Aware of this power, the artists featured in this exhibition engage with archives to craft powerful counter-narratives. Their authored stories reveal the transformative potential of critique and reinterpretation. Their art creates space for undetermined futures while honoring ancestral lineages, kinship, and resilience.

The Archive as Liberation exhibition is co-curated with Aaron R. Turner. Turner is the author and organizer of The Archive as Liberation book, published by Light Work (Syracuse University).
