Seven remarkable women all pondering the work of “de” and “re” in some way have come together for this exhibition to share the poetry that is this lifelong, generational process of doing and undoing and doing. 

Of unlearning and remaking. 

Of leaving and becoming. 

Of holding cultural histories dear and forming new cultural contexts.

Of building new communities of individual and shared identities.

This exhibition of photographic work is an invitation to ponder the kinds of constructions that compose every aspect of our lives. This artwork is an invitation to wonder at our abilities as humans to deconstruct those things which do not serve us or our communities well, and the even more remarkable tenacity we have to reconstruct new possibilities for our future.  

FEATURING: Natalie Christensen, Connie Flores, Carol Lara, Brea Youngblood, Tiffany J. Sutton, Aïda Hasanović, and April Parviz

The literary journal “december” has a long and impressive history. It was a pioneer in the “little” magazine and small-press movement in the late 1950s and early ‘60s and was renowned for publishing “cutting edge” fiction, non-fiction, and poetry before that phrase became part of the vernacular. The staff of “december” continue to carry on its mission. With a new edition to be released, CAM hosts a reading of a selection of the writers included.
