in more ways than one

in more ways than one

in more ways than one is a teen-curated exhibition of artworks by NYC students focusing on the multiple dimensions of gun violence and its effects on different communities and individuals across the country and world. Gun violence has been normalized by our media and current events through film/television, news stories, and social networks. In our exhibition, gun violence is expressed through art that examines a variety of viewpoints and perspectives on the subject, ranging from reflections by those who have experienced personal loss through gun violence, explorations of the implications on mental health, and pieces re-imagining a world free from this epidemic.
