DARCY FALK: REGARDING PRIVILEGE
SEPTEMBER 23 – NOVEMBER 2, 2023
In Regarding Privilege, Falk exhibits embroidered artworks that address white privilege by exhibiting the backside of the embroideries as the primary message. Each embroidery is accompanied by a mirror, so that the words can be read over the shoulder of the viewer, with their back turned toward the message. The embroidered quotes are by prominent Black politicians, writers, activists, and others, and are rendered in the artist’s handwriting using embroidery on cloth.
