Catherine Blackburn’s work explores loss, language, and survival through the medium of beadwork.

Second Tongues is an on-going project by artist Serena Lee. Imagining a world where everyone is assigned a randomly selected second language at birth, Lee explores the dynamics of language learning and the politics of language hierarchies.
