Can a portrait represent violence and healing at the
same time? By juxtaposing iconic images created at
points of conflict and growth in history, Speaking in
Pairs examines how conflicting forces can be
experienced in what initially appears to be a quiet
photograph and how such evidence of being present,
alive, can increase visibility or hasten our demise.
Portraits allow immortality. But who gets to be
pictured and seen? Who may tell their story?
Speaking in Pairs seeks to offer navigational refer
ences across time and geography, between works
and the practitioners making, or pondering, them.
It considers art’s historical and contemporary
response to oppression and crisis and offers rep
resentation to those impacted by extraordinary
events. It unravels the dynamics between sitters,
artists and viewers and how they complicate the
image in ways that are not immediately discernible
