Thursday, May 16th, 6-7:30pm through the Undesign The Redline exhibit at the Cleveland Park Library, D.C. artist and teacher Paula Mans will discuss her 2023 series entitled See Me. 

See Me contemplates how Black people respond to dynamics of (in)visibility while navigating the dehumanizing systems of racialized surveillance, displacement and gentrification. Reflecting on her family’s experience in northwest D.C., Mans shares how that experience is manifest in her art.
