Images from the Newest Americans immigrant detention series “Detained” were included in an exhibition at the Department of Photography and Imaging Galleries at New York University Tisch School of the Arts.
This exhibition was part of For Freedoms’ 50 State Initiative, a non-partisan, nationwide campaign to use art as a means of inspiring civic participation in advance of the 2018 midterm elections. For Freedoms was founded by artists in 2016 as a platform for civic engagement, discourse, and direct action in the United States. For Freedoms uses art to deepen public discussions of civic issues and core values, and to clarify that citizenship in American society is dependent on participation, not ideology.
