SUMMARY:Yeabsera Tabb-Tezeta
DESCRIPTION:tezeta (teh-zeh-tah): an Amharic word that roughly translates to memory\, nostalgia\, or longing \nThis body of work is an exploration of the physical and figurative aspects of “place.” On one hand\, the word “place” refers to our built environment\, choices of design\, and our interactions with the physical world. On the other hand\, it refers to a sense of belonging that is cultural and emotional–still deeply tied to the physical world\, but able to exist without it through memory. I invite the viewer to step into the threshold separating “here and now” from”‘then and there.”  \nPhysical spaces such as markets\, homes\, and schools are where most of our memories are made\, and the physicality of a space is significant in shaping our upbringing. I am deeply influenced and inspired by the colors\, textures\, and sounds that surrounded me during my childhood in Ethiopia.  \nWhen I came to the U.S. from Addis Ababa as a teenager\, I found myself existing in a liminal space. I longed for the outdoor markets\, casual coffee gatherings\, and kids kicking soccer balls on narrow streets. This was where my sense of place rested and suddenly it was nowhere to be found. I had to completely reframe my understanding of place. By acknowledging the importance of place in shaping our identity\, I explore what happens when we are separated from our places by distance and time. – Yeabsera Tabb \nAbout the Artist  \nYeabsera Tabb is an interdisciplinary visual artist with a focus in printmaking and textiles. Her work explores the intersectionalities and liminal space contained within one’s personal identity.  \nAs an artist\, Yeabsera often struggles to reconcile her pain\, bewilderment\, and anger with societal expectations to create beauty. Acknowledging anger\, joy\, and resistance\, her work exists in a complicated middle ground\, invoking the recognition and appreciation of disparate feelings and experiences. \nAfter graduating with degrees in both Design for Social Impact and Fine Arts\, Yeabsera held multiple solo and group shows in Indianapolis including a group show at Newfields. Additionally\, she was one of 10 Black woman artists named as an Emerging Visionary Artist by Shea Moisture. \n\n\nMain Gallery\nVISIT US\nWednesday -Friday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.\nSaturday & Sunday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.\nTube is also open until 10 p.m. each First Friday.\nClosed Holidays\n\nThis exhibit is made possible by The Arts Council of Indianapolis\, The City of Indianapolis and Allen Whitehill Clowes Foundation.

SUMMARY:Nasreen Khan: Cic·a·trix
DESCRIPTION:The narrative of femininity is pain.\nCicatrix: the scar of a healed wound. In botany\, cicatrix refers to the keloid mark left on a tree after a piece of it has been removed. In this body of work\, I am exploring the personal maternal scar of being taken away from the only real parental figure I had until that point in life\, the complex scars of colonialism and immigration\, and the physical scars of my own body.\n\nI spent the first part of my life in Senegal\, West Africa. I was raised by my nanny\, a Senegalese woman named Saly. In Senegal there is a practice called diamou\, or gum tattooing and burning. A hot needle is repeatedly poked into a woman’s gums. Then a mixture of burnt oil and shea butter is rubbed into the wounds to darken the space around the teeth. This is supposed to make the woman more beautiful\, but also to train her to tolerate pain. When I was 9\, Sali began tattooing my gums to blacken them. She was never able to finish. I spent the second half of my life in Indonesia. Saly died the year after we left Africa.\n\nThe architect and urban planner\, Le Corbusier\, wrote about humanity as born in a state of insufficiency\, therefore needing “auxiliary organs.” For Le Corbusier\, our built environments\, including building architecture\, become prosthetic extensions of our insufficient human bodies. His thoughts form the basis for contemporary prosthetic theory\, often cited in the world of AI and tech innovation. For example\, a computer mouse pad becomes an extension of our internal understanding of reality\, as it is the “limb” we use to create changes in our virtual realities.\n\nImmigration is both an amputation and a taking on of prosthesis through cultural assimilation in a new built environment. The relationships we leave behind are an extension of ourselves. Their separation leaves a wound\, then a scab\, then a callous on which the new ones rest like a prosthetic limb.\n\nI draw on concepts of scarification and prosthesis in this body of work. The collections of dots and lines that form many of the backgrounds are translated from traditional African scarification patterns. I choose to work burning on wood\, mirroring the tattoos on my gums. The tree limbs and bark are functionally akin to scarred skin and flesh.\n\nThe cultural narrative of femininity I was taught as a child was –to be woman was to endure pain–and to be a good woman\, was to endure pain quietly. Once I immigrated to America\, the messaging about what it meant to be a woman changed only slightly. I am in pain. The pain I experience is often dismissed\, by the immigration and medical systems\, by male partners\, by respectability culture.These works are manifestations of the silent scaring and re-wounding that many women experience. They challenge and subvert these narratives through their size and emotionality. The use of a once living medium is a metaphor for womanhood and immigration.\nRun your fingers on the raised welts in the wood. Touch pain.\n\nAbout the Artist\nNasreen Khan (she/her) is a writer\, visual artist\, teacher\, and mother. She grew up in West Africa and Indonesia and has recently made a home in Indianapolis. Her teaching and artistic practices\, rooted in questions of equity and earth-based spirituality\, grapple with questions of belonging; celebrate cultural margins; and confront colonization\, racism\, and misogyny.\nIG: @heyitsnasreen\nWebsite: https://nasreen-khan.com/\n\nJune 2-July 23\nJeremy D. Efroymson Gallery\nWednesday -Friday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.\nSaturday & Sunday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.\nTube is also open until 10 p.m. each First Friday.\nClosed Holidays\nMade possible by The Arts Council of Indianapolis\, The City of Indianapolis\, Allen Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation and more.

SUMMARY:Keith Beatty-Lunch Break Live Tuesdays presented by Lake City Bank
DESCRIPTION:Hands down…Keith Beatty was born to sing. Growing up in Indianapolis and moving on to sing in the Indiana University Choral Ensemble\, the crooner made his mark on teachers and students and was known as the man with the melodic voice.\nUnleashing the music deep down\, Beatty writes music for life\, not hype. He sings with passion\, emphasis\, and with a way that will warm the coldest heart. He speaks truth to his listeners giving them a dose of reality a la his life experiences.\nAs a true talent that can draw you in with one stroke of his guitar\, Beatty strongly believes music is life recorded\, and those who love R&B and Soul will hear sweet sounds out of lips that only bring what’s real. Like the songs sang by Aretha Franklin and the Temptations\, Keith Beatty’s songs will be added to the history books as songs from an artist with true talent.\n\nFood Truck: Taste of Manila\n\nWe at Big Car are teaming up with Downtown Indy and the City of Indianapolis — with support from the Capital Improvement Board and the Indiana War Memorials Commission— to spark Monument Circle with human-scale activities like games\, live music\, artmaking\, and socializing in a comfortable place. We’re based in the southwest quadrant.

SUMMARY:Andrea Jandernoa- Power Plant Grant Juror Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Learn about artist Andrea Jandernoa\, a juror for our 2023 Power Plant Grant. Jandernoa is an award-winning artist and educator who specializes in community-based arts programming. She holds an MA in Philosophy and an MFA in Integrative Studio Practice from Herron School of Art & Design. Jandernoa experiments with intentional processes\, materials\, and forms\, in order to discover metaphors that can be applied to social contexts or to challenge inequitable power structures. This results in a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary art practice. Jandernoa also maintains a studio space at the Circle City Industrial Complex where she paints and exhibits oil paintings.\n\nAbout the The Power Plant Grant\nPower Plant Grants support — on an annual basis — visual artists who live\, work\, or run spaces in Indianapolis with project grants of $10\,000.
