Working across painting, textiles, sculpture, installation, and advocacy, Philadelphia-based artist Jesse Krimes draws upon his own experiences of incarceration and reentry into society to interrogate and critique the American criminal justice system.
Produced in response to ongoing abuses at Rikers Island, New York City’s largest and most notorious jail, Rikers Quilt serves as a poignant metaphor for the underrecognized and continued mistreatment of people imprisoned in the United States.
On view through September 15, 2024.
