Milton Bowens: Chronicles of Cultural Resonance
Oakland-born artist Milton Bowens, also known as Milton 510, delves into the African American experience by intertwining archival materials with mixed media. His works serve as visual essays, reflecting on the enduring impact of African American history and culture. Bowens’ pieces are not only artistic expressions but also educational tools, having been incorporated into academic curricula at institutions like Cornell University and UC Davis.

Miami-based Haitian-American artist Laetitia Adam-Rabel employs a multidisciplinary approach, utilizing painting, textiles, photography, and sound to navigate themes of race, womanhood, and ancestry. Her art is a continuous evolution, mirroring the complexities of personal identity and societal roles. Adam-Rabel’s work invites viewers into an intimate dialogue on inclusion, motherhood, and the pursuit of a better world.
