The arts center explains:

“Through a layered and striking ‘collage aesthetic,’ Davis explores her own ancestral history and, she says, documents the contradiction between the natural beauty that her ancestral land bares and the architectural beauty of historic monumental buildings built by the labor of slaves. This exhibition is shown in tandem with ‘Bohemian Ossuary,’ by artist D.S. Kinsel.’’
