Qiana Mestrich’s photographs are featured in the exhibition, “I belong to this,” curated by photographer Justine Kurland who states, “I belong to this brings seventeen artists together around themes of self and family, private rites and communal ritual, along a continuum of becoming. The title of the show is from Ariana Reines’s poem “Save the World”, and can be read as a declaration of identification, a promise of solidarity, or a blurring of self into multitudes. These artists mark an intractable this. The camera points, more like an ear than an index finger, in the direction of what is felt rather than seen and to those invisible threads that hold us together.”
”Qiana Mestrich’s son bows his head low in concentration as his arms take flight in dance; a grid of photographs maps his movements across time and space.”
