Déjà Vu is a group exhibition that explores the idea of multiple realities and worlds built by artists that bring the viewer into the mind of the artist. Inspired by escapism, the works in Déjà Vu include mythical figures, imagined landscapes, and new paradigms that feel familiar to each artist. The title of the exhibit references the common French phrase for the phenomenon of feeling as though one has lived through the present situation before. It is an illusion of memory whereby—despite a strong sense of recollection—the time, place, and context of the "previous" experience are uncertain or impossible.
Exhibition Artists: Autumn Breon | Uzumaki Cepeda | Alanis Forde | Lewinale Havette | Jazmine Hayes | Monica Hernandez | Rugiyatou Ylva Jallow | Ambrose Rhapsody Murray | Kelli Ryan
