Installed throughout the historic house, Overlapping Empires brings contemporary art into direct dialogue with one of New York City’s earliest colonial sites. Working across still-life photography, sound, and installation, Samantha Box draws on the visual languages of 17th-century painting, tourism imagery, and contemporary product photography to explore the connections between empire, trade, migration, and memory.
Samantha Box is a Jamaican-born, Bronx-based artist who uses photography, sound and installation to chart the fluctuating and tenuous physical and psychosocial spaces of queerness and diaspora
