The exhibit centers Black joy, healing, and self-love as a necessary part of anti-racist and decolonial liberation movements.  It aims to strengthen solidarity within the Black community by finding alternative histories, mapping black diaspora, and discovering personal archives.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/back-in-the-day.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-24328\"><\/figure>\n\n<p>The multidisciplinary characteristic of the artists informed Jessy Koeiman&rsquo;s selection process.  Macaulay&rsquo;s work appears alongside that of David Uzochukwu, Aqueene Wilson, Marciano Lynch &ndash; aka MC V.E.G.A, Ethel Tawe, Kay Slice and Rossel Chaslie.<\/p>\n\n<p>The exhibit features three works by Macaulay. <a href=\"\/ias-news\/july-2019\/black-diaspora\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Embodied Witness<\/a>, a 16-minute video essay on coded non-verbal communications within the African Diaspora, grows out of research she began in the Master of Arts in Cultural Studies program.  The exhibit also includes Metamorphic Return, a single channel video and Il\/legible presences, study 98 , a large scale photo work, both from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.berettemacaulay.com\/new-work-metamorphic-return\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Metamorphic Return to Fusion<\/a> project which explores  mythical negotiations of trans*cultural identity, visibility, and opacity.  Selections of this project were recently on view at Jacob Lawrence Gallery for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailyuw.com\/arts_and_culture\/galleries_museums\/article_1ede48cc-dea9-11eb-91a6-b3eddb4b9a06.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">exhibition Queer Imagination<\/a> curated by Brittney Frantece. <\/p>\n\n<p><br \/>\n<sup>Embodied Witness: Performing Memory for Black (re)Cognition (video still) &copy; Berette S Macaulay | Performers: Justin C.

The project received the National Performance Network Creation Fund Grant this past summer.  Berette and Tom just completed their first of three artist residencies with one of her project partners Wa Na Wari Seattle.  Other partners and commissioners include Vanishing Seattle and BRIC Arts in Brooklyn, New York. The Seattle leg of the project is estimated for public participation in fall of 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Berette S.
