Through the works of six contemporary artists, Andrea Bowers, Margarita Cabrera, Blane De St. Croix, Tony de los Reyes, Zhi Lin, and Hung Liu, The Other Side explores recurring issues of immigration, border relations, and labor practices that have persisted throughout U.S. history and remain timely today.

While the works employ different styles and references and span different historic periods, geographic locations, cultural influences, and gender perspectives, they are bound together by the common threads of memory, history, identity, and humanity.

By presenting these emotionally poignant and conceptually engaging works, The Other Sidehopes to offer viewers a humanized perspective on complex immigration issues often overshadowed by mass media and politics.
