About the Exhibit
It Won’t All Wash Away brings together a body of work that confronts the idea of cleansing—what can be removed, and what remains no matter how much time, pressure, or silence is applied. Through layered color, graffiti marks, and symbolic imagery, the exhibition explores memory, identity, faith, and history as forces that cannot be erased.
Across the works, there is a recurring tension between softness and resistance—flowers blooming where destruction is expected, figures holding stillness in chaotic environments, and symbols of protection existing alongside warning and harm. Water, cleansing, and renewal are implied, but never absolute. What these pieces suggest is that some things—truth, experience, cultural memory—do not dissolve. They settle deeper, reshape themselves, and re-emerge.
The exhibition moves between personal and collective narratives, asking viewers to consider what persists beneath the surface. What do we carry forward, whether we choose to or not? What remains after systems attempt to overwrite or silence?
It Won’t All Wash Away is not about despair—it is about endurance. It is about the parts of us, and our histories, that refuse disappearance.
