Temporal Geolocation: How Place & History Form Identity in Collage

Opening Reception: Saturday, 12 October 2024, 6-9PM during the Second Saturday Gallery Walk In Lure of the Local, Lucy Lippart wrote, “When we know where we are, we’re in a far better position to understand what other cultural groups are experiencing within a time and place we all share.” How do we temporally geolocate ourselves? How does the history of that place inform who we are in that place? How do we bring our own histories into a place that has a history of its own. North American modern life is fundamentally diasporic in nature. So many of us are from somewhere else and yet, where we are and when we are shapes who we are at any given point in time. How do we reconcile disparate identities and nurture a whole sense of self? Each of the four artists in “Temporal Geolocation” draw on history and a sense of place to make collage art that speaks to identity.
