Experience an inspiring journey through art and history at Sedrick Huckaby's Black Bird Redemption Song exhibition! This thought-provoking show features Huckaby's sculptural bird series, where larger-than-life black birds are crafted in papier-mâché and placed in antique birdcages. Each sculpture powerfully explores themes of confinement, freedom, and the impact of mass incarceration on Black communities.

  • See expressive sculptures and accompanying drawings revealing decades of Huckaby's exploration into community, humanity, and spirituality.
  • Discover the monumental Portrait of Craig Watkins, a tribute to Texas's first elected African American District Attorney, alongside powerful mixed media works representing individuals exonerated through Watkins' conviction integrity efforts.
  • Immerse yourself in moving video installations that connect local history to the present, including the community's investigation into the 1921 lynching of Fred Rouse.

This exhibition is a must-see for those interested in contemporary art, social justice, and the power of creativity to inspire meaningful change.
