Institute for Contemporary Art Exhibition: PATRICE RENEE WASHINGTON: TENDRIL

Tendril is a solo exhibition by Patrice Renee Washington. Working primarily in ceramics, Washington investigates structures of race, class, and gender and considers how identity can be manipulated and shaped to achieve different ends. Though diverse in scale (from monumental to miniature) and in iconography (from power to peril), the works in this exhibition share a common concern: to reveal how opposing meanings can coalesce into singular cultural symbols.
