Join artist Ebony G. Patterson, as she takes to the Theater at MAD with exhibition curator Karen Patterson for an evening discussion exploring the recently opened exhibition Ebony G. Patterson: Dead Treez. Exploring social and political issues within the gender-bending subculture of Jamaica’s dancehall community, Ebony G. Patterson: Dead Treez examines the pageantry of the dancehall culture and reveals it to be much more than spectacle; it is also a window into working-class Jamaican society. Together, Patterson and Patterson reveal how this rich culture inspired the creation of works on view.
