Names Printed in Black explores the impact that memory has on the physical and psychological body, using loss and trauma as a framework to understand individual and collective rememberings. The artists featured in this exhibition explore human rights violations, the language that is meant to protect us against them, representations of violence in the media, and how our body reacts. Among the artists whose work is included in the exhibition are Carmen Argote, Adriana Corral, Carlos Motta, Lisa C Soto, and Samira Yamin.
