Collection: Mixed Blood Manifesto

An exhibition of new work by Andrew Patterson

On view: November 10th-15th, 2022

Mixed Blood Manifesto explores the topic of mixed-race identity through a series of portraits, interviews, type-based works, a zine, a playlist, and reference materials. In an increasingly polarized society, what insights might people who are living, breathing bridges between cultural groups provide? What can individuals of mixed-race descent teach us about monoculture, the shortcomings of identity politics, and our own individual identities? And can engaging with existing media through a new lens - music, film, writing - give us a new perspective on concepts we take for granted?

The goal of this show is to challenge our ever-narrowing perspectives all along the socio-political spectrum and our calcifying views about what's important about identity.
