Join The Nicholson Project for the opening reception of "Liminality: A Story of Remembrance" a solo exhibition by Phylicia Ghee.

The Nicholson Project is proud to present Liminality: A Story of Remembrance, a solo exhibition by Phylicia Ghee. An immersive installation created during Ghee’s time in residence at The Nicholson Project and on view through January 28, 2023, Liminality: A Story of Remembrance is an ode to the self-taught herbalists, midwives, and root women whose stories are shrouded in the mysteries of Ghee’s personal family history and the history of this country. Incorporating sound, texture, and an apothecary cabinet that “feels like walking into the living space of a Grandmother, Great Aunt, or family matriarch,” Ghee has transformed The Nicholson Project’s gallery into a place that feels sacred, where herbs are hanging and herbal remedies are cultivated, where recipes are handwritten on napkins and torn pieces of paper.<a href="https://www.thenicholsonproject.org/exhibition-liminality" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Click here</a> to learn more about Liminality: A Story of Remembrance.About The Nicholson Project The Nicholson Project is a paid artist residency program and neighborhood garden in Ward 7’s Fairlawn neighborhood.
