Whatever’s Next, Let’s Make It Good

Tracy Simpson Solo Exhibition
CORE Gallery, May, 2021

Wednesday – Saturday, 12pm-6pm

2020 revealed deep fissures in the social contract and illuminated the stark differences in how we understand our basic responsibilities to one another. Do we wear a mask to protect others? Do we use someone’s preferred pronouns? Do we recognize our unearned privilege? Do we squarely face and address the inequities that COVID-19 and George Floyd’s murder laid bare? We are clearly divided in how we answer these questions. 

The primary pieces comprising my 2021 show, Leading Edge, Grassroots, Moral Arc of the Universe, and Beloved Community, are my attempts to visually convey my belief that the change we collectively need will come from the edges and that it will be grassroots efforts that bend the moral arc of the universe all the way down to earth so that the beloved community is realized.
