Speakers Samantha Master of Free Black Mamas DMV, Qiana Johnson of Life After Release, and Nicole Hanson-Mundell of Out for Justice will address the impacts of incarceration on women, and especially the disproportionate impact on women of color, including such topics as: the role art plays in elevating the voices of incarcerated people; how we got into the crisis of incarceration; issues around sentencing; the history of organizing around incarceration; and examples of resistance.

In coordination with the exhibition Life on Hold, which features the artwork of women incarcerated at the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women (MCIW), Gormley Gallery is pleased to offer a series of public programs on art and incarceration. This event, hosted in collaboration with Loyola/Notre Dame Library and Loyola University Maryland, is free and open to the public, and is intended to expand upon the themes of the exhibition and inspire direct community action. Life on Hold remains on view at Gormley Gallery through March 3.

Screening of the documentary Art & Krimes by Krimes, followed by Q&A with artist Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter.

Art & Krimes is about artist Jesse Krimes, who secretly created monumental artwork while locked up in federal prison. Working with prison bed sheets, hair gel, and newspaper, he created small panels that he smuggled out piece by piece, ultimately creating a 40-foot mural that he saw only upon coming home.

Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter is an award-winning artist who creates work about her experience of incarceration and offers a critical perspective on the particular challenges women of color face when they become immersed in the criminal justice system. This event is offered in coordination with the exhibition Life on Hold at Gormley Gallery, which features artwork by women incarcerated at the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women.
