SUMMARY:Gil Ngole: Displacement
DESCRIPTION:Displacement: A Deconstructed Sound Journey\nFeaturing the art of Gil Ngole\nThis one night only exhibition features sculptures and sound art created by MCA graduate student Gil Ngole. He creates his foam and fabric sculptures quickly to mirror the rate that people in his home of the Republic of the Congo must make their bundles when they are forcefully displaced. Their bundles hold the food\, clothes\, and necessities they will need to survive away from their homes. His sound art focuses on the noises that displaced people in Central Africa hear while they are fleeing from their homes: the sound of falling feet\, explosions\, and the rattle of food cans. These noises\, coupled with the bundles move the viewers from the role of complacent observer and forces them into an empathetic position where they are experiencing forced displacement. This helps Gil deconstruct the image that western media has put forth about forced displacement. The exhibition will take place on a bus\, the location itself emphasizing the theme of movement and transportation that permeates Gil’s work. \nDisplacement will be on view in the parking lot of Crosstown Art’s Flea Market\, as part of Crosstown’s mission to expose the community to diversity and bring diverse communities together. \nThe exhibition is organized by Sadie Yanckello\, Amaris Prechtel and Mohib Khan\, with support from the Rhodes College Gallery Management class and a Center for Outreach and Development of the Arts (CODA) Grant. \n
