Description

A Racket of Banshees: Goddesses and Monsters Re-Imagined invites viewers into a world of myth, feminist archetypes, and speculative futures. Expanding on the 2023 online exhibition Goddesses and Monsters presented with LADIES鈥� ROOM, Los Angeles, this 2026 exhibition features returning and new contemporary feminist artists across sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, video, performance, and community workshops.

Blending the divine and the monstrous, the exhibition explores transformation, gender equity, and imagined futures. Monsters challenge the status quo, while goddesses illuminate unknown possibilities. Together, they create a space between myth and reality where viewers are invited to reflect on what must end, what can emerge anew, and how another world might be possible.

Description

In 1994, the United States Border Patrol launched the immigration enforcement strategy known as 鈥淧revention Through Deterrence鈥� (PTD). With heightened security measures at urban points of entry, undocumented migrants were forced to traverse extremely treacherous environments, land dubbed as 鈥淗ostile Terrain鈥� by U.S. Border Patrol. PTD failed to deter border crossers and, instead, millions of people have attempted to migrate through the US-Mexico border since the 1990s. By using this tactic, the U.S. government has attempted to shift the blame onto the harsh environment, weaponizing the land as a natural killing field. As a result of this policy, more than 8,100 people have died on the US-Mexico border, largely from dehydration and hyperthermia, while attempting the journey through California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. PTD is still the primary border enforcement strategy being used on the US-Mexico border today.

Hostile Terrain 94 is a participatory exhibition created by the Undocumented Migration Project (UMP), a non-profit organization that focuses on the violent social process of immigration and raises awareness through research, education, and outreach.

Description

Historically, land has been wielded in the service of power for exploration, extraction and conquest. The advent of the camera legitimated this speculation and capture with the click of a shutter. But, can photography rupture this cycle and reconnect us with the endangered ecologies that surround us?

This group of artists propose radical geographies, rendering land as a politically charged locus of negotiation, mediating the site of their environs with the sight of their camera to posit questions about our ontological connection to the landscape and envisioning new ways of stewarding it into the future.
