Mar. 2020: FotoFest 2020 Biennial Opening Night

The FotoFest 2020 Biennial held it's opening night on March 7th at the Silver Street Studios in Houston, TX. Although many of the planned events for the following months were postponed, canceled, or adapted for remote participation due to the pandemic, the opening night celebration had a great turnout. This year's biennial, African Cosmologies: Photography, Time, and the Other, examines the complex relationships between contemporary life in Africa, the African diaspora, and global histories of colonialism, photography, and rights and representation.
