In Negotiated Frontiers, photo-based artist William Camargo brings together three bodies of work that negotiate space and interrogate the artist’s positionality while aiming to deconstruct the photographic canon. Using photography, installation, political public performances, and community archiving, this exhibition re-evaluates a photographic history that continuously omits or tokenizes Black, Indigenous, Queer and Brown perspectives in the medium.

This virtual exhibition curated by Dalina A. Perdomo-Álvarez, will run from January 14 - May 14th 2021, and be paired with a limited edition print publication. The publication* will further expand upon Camargo’s Origins & Displacements, As Far As I Can Get, and All That I Can Carry series.

details forthcoming*
