Out of the Depths: An Exhibition Exploring the Complex Nature of the Migrant Crisis —Artist Talk & Reception

From the venue:

Out of the Depths is a collaborative traveling art exhibition that investigates the current migrant crisis from the perspective of a Lebanese street photographer (Fadi BouKaram, Beirut, Lebanon) and an American painter (Joe Cory, Birmingham, Alabama). In the exhibit, powerful images of the Middle East are juxtaposed with paintings based on filtered information mediated by American news sources. Motifs of water and navigational symbols further pervade the imagery as viewers confront images of humanity, themes of proximity and distance. The exhibition is curated by Matt Schneider (Birmingham, Alabama).
