A discussion centered on the intersection of art and animal activism, in conjunction with the exhibition “Voiceless Made Visible”.

Join us in the gallery on the Third Floor of 700 Bryden for this discussion led by Aaron Yarmel.

Voiceless Made Visible is a group exhibition at between tender portraits and haunting confrontations, inviting viewers to look more closely at animals—not as commodities or symbols, but as living beings with agency, vulnerability, memory, and presence.

The exhibition seeks work that considers the lives of animals and the systems that shape them: the ways they are confined, commodified, exploited, protected, loved, and resisted. We welcome artists whose work explores the intimate, the unsettling, the political, or the quietly profound.

We invite artists to submit work that reflects on animal lives, agency, vulnerability, resistance, and our complicated relationship with the more-than-human world.
