Artist in Residence Jakob Dwight is in the upcoming exhibition Disguise: Masks and Global African Art APRIL 29–SEPTEMBER 18, 2016 Morris A. and Meyer Schapiro Wing, 5th Floor.
Disguise: Masks and Global African Art connects the work of twenty-five contemporary artists with historical African masquerade, using play and provocation to invite viewers to think critically about their world and their place within it. By putting on a mask and becoming someone else, artists reveal hidden realities about society, including those of power, class, and gender, to suggest possibilities for the future.
Other Harvestworks residents in the exhibition include: Brendan Fernandes, Jacolby Satterwhite and Saya Woolfalk.
