Opening Saturday, March 8th, from 5PM - 8PM

SEWN FROM RESISTANCE: Deconstructing Black Disability Narratives in America is a site-specific, multi-sensory installation by Jill Wells that critically examines the intersection of Black and Disability histories within the American context. This work challenges stereotypical portrayals of Black disability identities while celebrating the resilience and resistance embedded within these lived experiences. Through a fusion of installation, painting, sound, and tactile sculpture, Wells engages sensory elements that shape how individuals’ access and engage with information.
