Ghost Fishing: Eco-Justice Poetry and the Diasporic City

"The call for eco-justice is inseperable from the call for racial and economic justice. Our hope for this exhibition is to not merely present this insight as analysis, but to embody and enact a way forward. As you view these installations, we invite you to consider the tenderness and care these plants need to exist in our shared world. How might we bring this same level of care to our interactions with one another? Who collaborates in the transformation of our world?" – From the Curatorial Statement

We Who Weave


This poem is being tended to by Marty Medina of Why Not Care.

“Waters been troubled
Makes you wonder
who put the root on whom first
with doors dyed indigo
Pray the evil spirits away
at the praise house”

-LeConté Dill, from “We Who Weave”
