NYC: Join Us for the Opening of Mired in the Bayou Oct. 15!
Posted By Diane Pham On September 30, 2010 @ 3:00 pm In Announcements,Art,New York City | No Comments
We’ve all seen images of the Gulf Oil Spill [5] – filmy waters, desolate shorelines and blackened, lifeless animals — but what about the lives and livelihoods that have been destroyed? On October 15th at the 99% Gallery [6], Inhabitat will present Mired in the Bayou [7], a brand new mixed-medium exhibit premiering in New York City [8]. Mired in the Bayou [7] presents a thought-provoking portraiture project, audio narratives, and objects from the coast that reveal how the BP Spill [5] has impacted and continues to impact individuals in the community of Bayou La Batre, Alabama’s once lucrative seafood capital. Watch our trailer above for a sneak peek into the exhibit and some behind the scenes footage of the project being made. You can also read about it here [7]!
OPENING RECEPTION: October 15, 2010, 7-10 PM
LOCATION: 99% Gallery, 99 North 10th, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY 11211
