HOUSTON – The Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs (MOCA) opens a new exhibition in the City Hall Rotunda that celebrates the expression of mythology.
Titled “____As Myth,” the exhibit is a community-driven response to mythology and culture.
“I am proud of the many achievements D.E.E.P has done since her selection as the third Houston Poet Laureate in 2017,” says Mayor Sylvester Turner. “Her work in the community during her tenure with the Emerge video series, with Houston icon Lauren Anderson’s story, and now this exhibit hosted at City Hall in conjunction with her new book is inspiring.”
Expressions! as the overarching theme for this year’s exhibitions opens many avenues for exploring the subject. This new exhibition, “___As Myth,” focuses on the expression of the mysticism of every day and launches audiences into conversations about their own truths and representations in mainstream literature. |
