Truth & Inspiration Visual Art Exhibition – Featuring "Regeneration" by Erin Fung

Presented by Cincinnati Museum Center and ArtsWave at Cincinnati Museum Center, OH

Ongoing
Truth & Inspiration Visual Art Exhibition – Featuring

Running through January 8, the Truth & Inspiration Visual Art Exhibition – held at Cincinnati Art Museum, National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and Cincinnati Museum Center – features impactful visual art by recipients of ArtsWave’s Black and Brown Artist Program.

“Regeneration” is presented as part of Cincinnati Museum Center’s “America’s Epic Treasures featuring Preternatural by Michael Scott,” an immersive, multimedia exhibition showcasing nature’s beauty and its destructive, disproportionate impact.

Curated by musician Erin Fung and Sahtu Dene filmmaker Tate Juniper, this installation explores Indigenous perspectives on changing landscapes, the magnitude of the erasure of First Nations peoples, and the global impact of local plastics production and pollution. Visitors will experience authentic dialogue between hunters, artists, elders and youth in an immersive, multimedia recreation of a roundtable discussion and individual interviews within the Northern community of Inuvik, Northwest Territories.

Funding for this installation comes through ArtsWave’s Black and Brown artist program. ArtsWave, the region’s engine for the arts, created the program to provide financial support to artists of color in the Cincinnati region to continue to interpret the themes of our times. Each featured artist has created artwork that captures the themes of “truth” and/or “reconciliation.” They were also asked to involve an aspect of collaboration with community members and other partners. This allowed the public to participate in reconciling the moment and imagining a more just and equitable future for the Cincinnati region through the arts.
