    Opening Reception February 7 | 6:00pm-8:00pm

    I have something  meaningful to say about us. We have something meaningful to say about us. Through our work as Black artists, we have an ongoing dialogue with the world and the conditions we exist in. The Light We Share is a visual conversation represented through shades of color on paper, canvas, and emulsion- mediums that have lit a fire within our souls. -Dirtykics

    This collaboration marks a powerful intersection of personal experience and collective healing. For both Jordy and Claire, the exhibition is more than just an artistic endeavor; it’s a call to action, a platform for initiating important conversations about the complexities of life, loss, and recovery. By combining their artistic visions, they aim to create a space that challenges perceptions, stirs emotions, and encourages viewers to confront their own experiences of grief, vulnerability, and hope.
