RAM Showcase: Storytellers—Narrative Photography from Artists of Color

The artists whose works are included in this exhibition harness the storytelling power of photographic imagery. They address social, cultural, and personal issues, including identity, the environment, community, history, and the everyday. As artists of color, their conversations are charged with the subtext of race and heritage, even if these issues are not directly addressed in their work.
