The Black Hand Side is an interactive art installation that peeks through the prism of race to explore American history and experiences from American descendants of slavery. The reclaimed treasures acquired from antique shops range from the most celebratory dedications of Black people to the most vile and grotesque. To simply observe these historic testaments as whimsical or intriguing art, the viewer turns a blindeye to real and enduring atrocities. Yet, in choosing to look at its Black hand side, lessons of resiliency, triumph, joy, and determination--in spite of challenges and injustices--become clear. Saginaw Art Museum. Runs through April 8th.
