Love, Land, & Deception: Deconstructing the Patriarchy Exhibition<\/strong>
On Display at the  from June 14th\u2013July 26th 2024<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exhibition Website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love, Land, and Deception: Deconstructing the Patriarchy <\/strong>is a collective exhibition at Chicago Art Department that aims to portray ways in which the patriarchy affects both the land and our bodies, a relationship that is inextricable; while also allowing us to imagine futures and ways of being to exist outside of this binary narrative and structure of deception. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is this relationship with land that the patriarchy targets to keep us coping and healing individually which has kept us trudging alone in the treachery of its violence for thousands of years; because of that, the works in this show seek to propose new or ulterior modes of being as a larger community to combat this system of deception. This exhibition asks us to envision a world beyond \u201cownership\u201d or \u201creclamation,\u201d concepts that are inherently tied to domination, colonialism, and white supremacy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a group project, Love, Land, and Deception <\/strong>is a collective development of ideas about how the relationship with land is necessary for true liberation of our minds and bodies. It is a group expansion of concepts fleshed out in Black and Indigenous Futures<\/em> exhibition by Akira, which expressed the healing energy that emanates from the hands who work the soil to harvest and sustain others. Restorative practices such as this may help us learn the true foundations of love and its power to transform from within. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love, Land, and Deception <\/strong>group exhibition seeks to recognize deceptions of the patriarchy while revealing its individual and global impacts, and to introduce us to the possibilities of new realities. A renewed sense of love and a relationship with the land can forge the pathway to dismantling the system as a whole. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition seeks to:<\/strong> Explore and define the structure, system, and dynamics of the patriarchy; Investigate the patriarchies\u2019 intersectional effects on different bodies, minds, communities, and the land; amPropose actions for remediation, healing, and deconstruction of the patriarchy at the individual, community, and\/or systemic level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
