Celebrate the opening of Anna Binta Diallo: Those mountains of shadows and valleys of light on Tuesday, May 27. Join MAG Director/Curator Carolyn Jervis for coffee and conversation from 1 - 3 p.m. in the Allard Hall Atrium.

Layering ideas of geologic time with histories of mapping, Anna Binta Diallo’s recent bodies of work engage her digital collage practice in poetic reflections on the ways we navigate land, water, and sky. Those mountains of shadows and valleys of light is a meditation on the multitude of strategies we have used over millennia to map and chart paths across the earth, inspired by a collection of discarded paper maps.
