From Burlington City Arts (BCA):

Pablo Bose, a UVM researcher working with immigrant-serving organizations, moderates a lively conversation in conjunction with BCA’s exhibition Here Now: Art and Migration. Panelists include Negina Azimi and Abdullah Hafizi of the global arts collective ArtLords (originally based in Afghanistan) and exhibiting artist Paula Higa (Brazil/US). Migration and Contemporary Cultures in Vermont is Co-sponsored by UVM Global and Regional Studies.

Here Now: Art and Migration brings together a group of international and national artists whose work explores concepts of borders, movement, and migration across local urban centers and global geographies. Through their choice of materials and visual languages, these artists challenge conventional notions of borders as fixed. They reimagine borders as sites of historical investigations, social reckoning, and conduits of an emerging aesthetic. Here Now: Art and Migration features artists who, through their creative practice, define their place in the here and now.
