Upcoming Exhibitions

Border Craft

March 1–June 15, 2025

Border Craft is a group exhibition featuring contemporary artists employing craft practices to address the geopolitical realities of borderland regions, including San Diego–Tijuana. The works on view, along with a series of accompanying public programs, serve as a feminist and critical counterpoint to dehumanizing systems designed to divide people and cultures. Tanya Aguiñiga, one of the exhibiting artists and a Longenecker-Roth Artist in Residence at UC San Diego’s Department of Visual Arts, describes her art and activism at the US–Mexico border as a “song to collapse the wall.” This statement points to the sense of interconnection and poetic resilience present across the works on display, which include ceramics, furniture, quilts, weavings, embroidery, video, and performance.

Participating Artists:

Tanya Aguiñiga, Jackie Amézquita, Margarita Cabrera, Sofía Córdova, Isidro Pérez García, tercas (Mely Barragán and Irma Sofia Poeter), Marisa Raygoza
