OPENING NIGHT, UNBOUND: The Gaze Within - The Photography of Angèle Essamba

On view through May 20, this powerful exhibition features 25 works by internationally acclaimed Cameroonian photographer Angèle Etoundi Essamba. Celebrated for her striking portrayals of Black women, Essamba’s work centers on dignity, interiority, and self-definition.

“The gaze within” reflects the commanding yet contemplative presence of her subjects, while “unbound” represents freedom from imposed narratives and the reclamation of identity. Together, the portraits form a profound meditation on self-possession, presence, and the quiet strength of womanhood.
