RISING TENSIONS

BEVERLY

HALL, HOFHEIMER THEATRE

The traveling installation is supported by curriculum and programming that combines research, creative expression, and public discussion to examine the past, evaluate the present, and consider a future in which all people who call Hampton Roads home are elevated to equal ground. This semester, Calway is working with Batten Honors College students enrolled in a course on art and society. Please join us as the students reflect on their research, present their artistic creations, and engage the audience in discussion about how race has shaped and continues to shape the landscape of the region.

Raised in Norfolk, Renee Calway is a conceptual creative who utilizes unconventional materials to promote ecological and socio-political awareness. She teaches studio classes at the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art and engages the community through The VIBE Arts District at the oceanfront.
