Tavares Strachan: Between Me and You

Spanning sculpture, performance, painting, ceramics, and immersive installations, Strachan’s work explores themes of cultural displacement, migration, and human aspiration by uplifting often hidden histories. 

Much of Strachan’s practice is connected to an ongoing research project, The Encyclopedia of Invisibility. This over 3,000-page opus documents people, events, and ideas that didn’t typically make it into mainstream encyclopedias. Through this project, Strachan questions the construction of historically canonized narratives that marginalize or obscure others while bringing unseen histories and important stories into the light. A version of the Encyclopedia will be on view in the exhibition.
