Livestreamed via Lumpen.TV on 4/22 at 6:30pm CST

Roland Knowlden is joined by Anthony Stepter in this dialogue about the exhibition and some of the ideas behind its thesis.

This show is a part of Co-Prosperity Peers, a series of solo exhibitions initiated by the Co-Prosperity Programming Council. Four artists are selected each year to take over the Co-Prosperity windows and hold programming during the run of their show.

Roland Knowlden is an African American artist and architectural designer. As an architect, he is interested in our physical environment, and the cultural and social implications of materials as they map and construct space. As an artist, Roland aims to articulate a visual language for a more invisible experience of space. His work questions notions of race, origin, belonging, boundaries, and power. Mapping, whether visualized through film or drawing, becomes a tool for Roland to create space. His work aims to not only reproduce our environments and experiences, but to produce new spatial realities.
