An Interdisciplinary Family Installation

Leah Sobsey         Linda Belans         Adam Sobsey

February 14 – March 4, 2023

Reception: Wednesday, February 22nd | 6-8PM

For more than two decades, Dr. Linda Belans, her daughter Leah Sobsey, and her son Adam Sobsey have been independently exploring family history through their respective disciplines: Belans, dancer/writer/poet; Leah Sobsey, imagemaker and Associate Professor of Photography, UNC-Greensboro; Adam Sobsey, writer and playwright. This exploration first culminated in an installation by the two women in 2016.

For whose eyes i have, the three family members draw on archival and personal histories of their maternal and paternal roots in Ukraine, Russia, Romania, and the United States. Through their respective disciplines and family traditions of photography, video, dance, music, and narrative storytelling, they create an immersive installation that explores migration and travel, heritage and identity, and both the power and the weight of what is passed down to us by our forebears.
