The​​ ​​Vault: Juana​ ​Alicia

Exhibition Website

Oct 3 2017 - Oct 29 2017

This​ ​work​ ​was​ ​selected​ ​by​ ​Ann​ ​Durbin​ ​(class​ ​of​ ​2019),​ ​who​ ​explains:​ ​“I​ ​was​ ​drawn​ ​to​ ​this​ ​piece for​ ​the​ ​underlying​ ​activist​ ​intentions​ ​that​ ​swirl​ ​beneath​ ​the​ ​surface​ ​of​ ​this​ ​evocative​ ​print.​ ​The piece​ ​is​ ​both​ ​a​ ​silent​ ​protest​ ​and​ ​tribute​ ​to​ ​women.​ ​Juana​ ​Alicia​ ​has​ ​dedicated​ ​her​ ​life​ ​to​ ​using her​ ​art​ ​as​ ​a​ ​form​ ​of​ ​activism,​ ​taking​ ​a​ ​stance​ ​for​ ​social​ ​justice—one​ ​artistic​ ​gesture​ ​at​ ​a​ ​time.
