"Not Only Seen, But Felt" brings together the creative practices of eight Black women photographers based in Memphis, each contributing a unique artistic voice to a shared narrative of Black life, culture, and identity. This exhibition highlights a spectrum of styles—spanning documentary, portraiture, archival, experimental, and abstract—showcasing the depth and versatility of their artistry. These photographers, acting as visual griots, transcend mere representation, using their lenses to tell powerful stories of strength, beauty, and complexity. Their work explores themes of love, community, family, labor, and remembrance, while also celebrating the quiet, everyday moments that are often overlooked yet deeply meaningful. United by their desire to uplift and document the multifaceted experiences of Black people, these artists invite viewers to see Memphis not just as a backdrop but as a living, breathing entity shaped by those who call it home.

As an immigrant artist from formerly colonized India now residing in the United States, Deepanjan Mukhopadhyay's multidisciplinary practice explores the intricate intersections of identity, politics, history, and spectatorship. Compelled by personal and academic inquiries into how colonial legacies shape contemporary experiences, Deepanjan's work delves into the transition from postcolonialism to neocolonialism, paying particular attention to themes of colonial history, labor, and technologies of representation.
