Aug 7, 2024

Lauri Lyons and Marcia Wilson will be curating an exhibition at the Wilmer Jennings Gallery in New York City.

  

The Divine Feminine Power exhibition is a visual celebration of Black women throughout the African Diaspora. The exhibition is intended to explore the depth and breadth of what it is to be a Black woman or to have been gifted with the presence of a Black woman.

We are looking for images that explore the multifaceted layers and nuances of Black women's leadership, ingenuity, beauty, courage, spirituality, power, creativity, work, sensuality,  activism, environments, psyche, and love.  

We are open to all genres of photography, but the images must primarily consist of your original artwork (re: Ai, collage, or archival).

Send all submissions and exhibition emails to: Artcuratoroffice@gmail.com
Photographers of African descent are asked to submit images for consideration in the exhibition.
The working title for the show is Divine Feminine Power. 
The exhibition is scheduled for February 5 to March 22 /29, 2025.


Submission Deadline September 1, 2024 (hard deadline).
Please email 2-5 Screenshots of your best photographs. Include captions.

In October you will be notified if your images were chosen for inclusion in the exhibition.

We look forward to your submissions!

Thank You,
Lauri Lyons 
Marcia Wilson

If you have the privilege of being born a black woman, it is my belief that it is a part of your divine mission to liberate yourself from all external and internalized oppression, and thereby liberate the world.
