Ashley Minner will share about her practice as a community-based visual artist and tell the story of the Exquisite Lumbee, one of her best-known and most widely shown projects to date. A collaboratively produced body of work featuring life-sized photo portraits and an artist book that borrows its form from a surrealist game, the Exquisite Lumbee invites the world to see a particular community of people in a particular place on their own terms.

This virtual talk is presented in conjunction with the in-person exhibition Every Book a Mirror: Book Artists Engage with the 21st Century, which is on display at the North Carolina Collection Gallery in Wilson Special Collections Library through July 12, 2023.
