BY Ann Magner
INHERITED PAIN AND loss find refuge in the sounds and shapes of Fugitive Speech, an upcoming exhibition at Oklahoma Contemporary, where collective and personal histories reclaim memory, time, and voice. Seven artworks from artists Emily M. Chase, JJJJJerome Ellis, and Anita Fields give new form to unheard voices and unseen bodies, putting on trial what, why, and who of personhood.
Fugitive Speech will be on view at Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center from November 3, 2022 through February 20, 2023. oklahomacontemporary.org
