History… we forget that it goes right up to yesterday. “The Lure of the Local”, Pg. 13
Tell me…
about the past
a story
the truth
why?
A star’s life begins with collapse. Its light reaches us even after its death.
Stars are the seeds of life.
We are stardust.
Our stars are telling our stories.
Our Tellers are our stars.
The “tellings” in this exhibition are rendered through the works of the artists Alisa Sikelianos-Carter, Esperanza Cortés, and Talin Megherian. Their art gives voice to the exploited, excluded and displaced, lives lived through the ages that make up our today. By weaving through the labyrinths of violence and cruelty, they illuminate themes of light, beauty, and transformation.
Tell the Stars celebrates histories of resilience and resistance that, like starlight, continue to shine even after The Tellers have passed on. Their stories are eternal and transcendent, bridging time and culture.
Sikelianos-Carter, Cortés and Megherian mine the past to imagine new futures, a new covenant and new becomings… …a world where Earthly life is a place of healing.
