This We Believe

What are the costs and consequences of allegiance? This We Believe explores the power and evolution of belief systems—religious, political, economic—and how adherence to and rejection of these ideologies has influenced our current global culture of divisiveness and polarization. From imagery of disillusionment and protest, to revelations of historical complexity and visions of transcending binary definitions of identity, the artworks featured question and critique unalloyed allegiance to creed or country.
