Sa’dia Rehman 

The story of the tracings of all the persons before us and after them

Sa'dia Rehman projects images from her archive—family photographs from the 1960s to the present, mass media images from U.S. news outlets, and a variety of other sources. She traces them on the wall as a live drawing, exploring how these public and private records communicate, consolidate, and contest ideas about race, power, and gender. 

9pm

Model Home 

Emergence

​

Model Home (Patrick Cain, electronics, and Nappy Nappa, vocals) will present an improvised performance for voice, tape, and electronics, as part of an ongoing inspection into creativity, discovery, and emergence of new ideas. Through a lens of real time re-arrangement of ideas and sounds, the artists create spaces that open possibilities of communication and world-building discovery.
