  • “Iliumpta”

    Crosstown Arts, East Gallery, Crosstown Concourse 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    Iliumpta is a retelling of Homer’s Iliad set in the Southernmost bayous of Mississippi. Named after the county the story takes place in, Iliumpta draws comparisons between masculinity in the American South and the sandaled heroes of yore, often pointing out the weakness in a regional outlook that insists on staying put during hurricanes.

    “Edgewise: Exploring Pattern and Rhythm with Line” by Khara Woods presents a collection of paintings, sculpture and creative devices developed since 2016.

Within these confines, there are arrangements that intertwine, shift and vibrate across canvas and wood.
