Not All Lives Are Legible looks back on three exhibitions, Lost Souls, The Repenters, and Darkness Rising, reflecting on how each engaged with the construction of the “other” within political and cultural systems. Moving from absence to misinterpretation to self-definition, Director Shamiela Tyer revisits questions of visibility, representation, and narrative control that remain deeply relevant today.
