UPCOMING EXHIBITION
12Gates is proud to present our newest group exhibition, first there was a sea, curated by Azra Dawood and featuring artists, Aaron Cohick and Divya Victor; Priyanka Dasgupta & Chad Marshall; Utsa Hazarika; and Baseera Khan.
Imagined as a “continuum room,” the space of the gallery explores the shifting intersections of religion and race that have shaped South Asian lives in the United States. It features projects that connect multiple timelines in U.S. history, often through the use of objects and methods that speak to crossings or journeys.
The show will be open to the public at 12Gates, 106 N 2nd St, Philadelphia, PA, next Saturday, May 17th, 2025.

This residency is designed for artists identifying as South Asian, South West Asian North African, (SA/SWANA), Black, Indigenous, Person of Color (BIPOC), and/or part of the Global South or Global Majority.
