Featured Exhibit
ESSE QUAM VIDERI
muslim self portraits
This exhibit features images of Muslims from a variety of backgrounds who worked with photographer Todd Drake to present themselves in the portraits (esse quam videri is Latin for "to be, rather than to seem"). The show features 19 photographs, collaged images, and self-drawn portraits. Short essays are also featured, to tell the stories behind the photographs. Todd Drake, a community-based artist, worked with Muslims in North Carolina and Bahrain to create the self-portraits.
