Jamea Richmond-Edwards: Another World and Yet the Same September 13, 2025 — June 14, 2026 - Wellin Museum

The Ruth and Elmer Wellin Museum of Art at Hamilton College will present "Jamea Richmond-Edwards: Another World and Yet the Same" from September 13, 2025, to June 14, 2026. Curated by Alexander Jarman, the exhibition features a large body of newly created work alongside mixed-media paintings from the past seven years, exploring race, class, and identity. Richmond-Edwards draws on her Detroit roots, incorporating music genres like jazz, soul, Motown, techno, and hip hop, as well as imagery from school marching bands. The title references a 17th-century dystopian novel by Joseph Hall, and the artist adapts its narrative through a fictional character, Iceberg, who leads a voyage to Antarctica to establish an egalitarian society, addressing themes of climate change and self-determination.
