STOLEN IDENTITIES: RIVER ROUTES TO FREEDOM
May 4 - September 15, 2023
Deborah McDuff Williams is a multi-talented artist whose training, extensive travel,
and lived experience have provided her with the tools to reflect on life and society
from a unique and highly textured perspective. Sensitive to waste, she frequently
employs used, natural, or found objects and materials to visually communicate researched
stories about the plight or achievements of the human experience. Influenced by African
cosmology, history and Deborah McDuff Williams' love for wood and water, Stolen Identities
amplifies enslaved Africans' plans and routes for escape and freedom.
