Forgotten histories, missed connections – there’s a distinct sense of grief only members of a diaspora can understand. Houston-born photographer and activist Irene Antonia Diane Reece concentrates on these phenomena in her work, capturing images of Black Americans in her attempts to protect Black history and decentralize whiteness in the artistic sphere and beyond. Layering text from Black Southern archives onto photos, her multimedia installation “Don’t Cry for Me When I’m Gone” highlights the weight of the loss that comes from the death of loved ones – and the importance of archivism in ensuring their memories live on. – Carys Anderson
