En Foco is thrilled to announce the opening of Translucent Tethers: 2024 Fellowship Exhibition, featuring the work of ten early-career photographers of color selected for the prestigious En Foco Photography Fellowship, now in its ninth year. The exhibition will showcase the exceptional work of Cali M. Banks, Jordana Bermúdez, Avijit Halder, Oji Haynes, Andrew Kung, Shina Peng, Sharon Miller, Lieh Sugai, Jennifer Teresa Villanueva, and Chen Xiangyun.
Curated by interdisciplinary visual artist Tyrone Santana Copeland, the exhibition will be on view from June 13 to July 24, 2024, at WallWorks NY, located at 15 Canal Place in The Bronx, New York.
An opening reception will take place on June 13, 2024, from 6 to 8 PM, where the new Nueva Luz issue will also be available for purchase. Viewing is available from Wednesday to Friday by booking an appointment at https://www.wallworksny.com/book-online. For additional times, email info@enfoco.org.
Translucent Tethers highlights points of interest that bind people together. Each photographer uses their art to (re)create their community and provide a space where people can be vulnerable. This space can take the form of relationships, culture, third spaces, or memories. The Fellows tell stories tied to their personal lives and continue a larger conversation about love, friendship, family, home, and how society shapes our identity.
