Archive I: Diverged Origins

July 13, 2023—August 31, 2023



Opening Reception:

Thursday, July 13, 5-8 p.m


NewStudio Gallery and Emerging Curators Institute are pleased to host Raíz Symbiotisk’s first exhibition, “Archive I: Diverged Origins.” Raíz Symbiotisk is a Minneapolis-based curatorial collective founded by Pamela Vázquez Torres (she/her/hers) and Emma Wood (they/them/hen), recipients of the 2022-2023 Emerging Curators Institute’s Fellowship.


“Archive I: Diverged Origins,” revolves around symbolisms extracted from fungi as a concept, or “fungal threads” such as origins, grief, transcendence, symbiosis, community, remediation, and regeneration. The exhibition includes interdisciplinary work by artists from the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
