Voiceless made visible opening reception

**Voiceless Made Visible is a group exhibition moving between tender portraits and haunting confrontations, inviting viewers to look more closely at animals—not as commodities or symbols, but as living beings with agency, vulnerability, memory, and presence.** **The exhibition seeks work that considers the lives of animals and the systems that shape them: the ways they are confined, commodified, exploited, protected, loved, and resisted. We welcome artists whose work explores the intimate, the unsettling, the political, or the quietly profound.** **We invite artists to submit work that reflects on animal lives, agency, vulnerability, resistance, and our complicated relationship with the more-than-human world.**
