An Incomplete Haunting gathers research-based, place-rooted works in photography, video, sculpture, installation and sound. Employing narrative craft as a mode of remembrance and resistance, the works in the exhibition reckon with episodes in U.S. history that continue to shape our present and that refuse erasure.
The works on view in An Incomplete Haunting emerge less as surrogates for history than as instruments for confronting its gaps and biases, revealing the past as contested, alive, and unresolved. Linking lived experiences across time and space, they undertake the slow labor of drafting a historical correction—showing that remembering is fraught, historical erasure is systemic, and history repeats itself, yet that facing the past honestly and inclusively is essential to justice and to the work of repair.
