AnkhLave Arts Alliance
Angela Miskis, Akemi Takeda and Dario Mohr will present a collaborative installation reflecting how different cultures process ideas of loss through veneration by creating memorials. This work is inspired by Miskis' new painting series "Converting Fear Into Energy," and Akemi's reflections on the pandemic, Black Lives Matter protests and the AAIP experience regarding equity. Dario's contribution will be inspired by his 2021 solo show at MFTA titled “Archetypes: A Visual Soundtrack”. With each artist representing a different marginalized group in the US, they present "In Memory Of..." as a collective acknowledgement of a human experience that unites us all.
