VISIBLE explores new ways of seeing both visually and interpersonally. Shown on the Pollak Library Second Floor Terrace, it was a polylogue on identity, stereotypes, and empathy to challenge your ways of seeing yourself and others.

The exhibition used lenticular works to illustrate and illuminate artists’ self-concepts and anaglyphs to visualize the impact of and response to hate incidents in Orange and Los Angeles County.

In addition, a digital interface allowed guests to participate in making art with us to create a collage that makes VISIBLE the multiplicity of identities and individuals that compose Orange and Los Angeles Counties.
