A solo exhibition by Baltimore-based artist Jackie Milad, featuring new and recent works developed with the support of the Creative Capital Foundation and the Rubys Artist Grant. This exhibition centers on Milad’s reinterpretation of ancient funerary figures known as shabtis, examining their global dispersal, symbolic resonance, and the ways in which cultural heritage is fragmented and reframed through contemporary practice.
In Between the Lines unites the poetic photographs of Camila De Ilhéus with the vibrant, symbolic paintings of Chidinma Dureke. Together, they explore what it means to live between places, languages, and identities. From De Ilhéus’ intimate images layered with handwritten verse to Dureke’s dreamlike botanicals and liminal spaces, the exhibition invites viewers into the beauty, ache, and resilience of the in-between.
