Registration required | Limited Capacity: 15 participants

In this hands-on arts workshop, participants will manipulate photographs of the artist’s original work, experimenting with different techniques and materials to simulate the process of photo editing that Zevallos uses in her series Uprooted: Haitian Diaspora and Displacement currently on view in the HCX Studio.

Participants will engage with the art in a tactile way, exploring creative expression while transforming Zevallos’ images into creation of their own and gaining insight into the artistic process behind the artist’s editing technique.

All proceeds support HCX and workshop materials! Mèsi pou sipò nou!

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Zarita Zevallos, a Haitian Photographer and Architect based in Brooklyn, New York, is renowned for her distinctive artistic approach. Her work merges hand editing and superimposing photographs of darker-skinned bodies with powerful materials like thread, bullets, glass, and barbwire, among others. Through her art, she delves into themes of identity, gender roles, crimes committed by nations, non-conformism, and political or ideological authoritarianism. Her objective goes beyond denouncing, educating, and raising awareness. She aspires to ignite movement and incite change, pushing the limits of expression and inspiring transformative action through her thought-provoking creations.
