Translucent Tethers highlights points of interest that bind people together. Each photographer uses their art to (re)create their community and provide a space where people can be vulnerable. This space can take the form of relationships, culture, third spaces, or memories. The Fellows tell stories tied to their personal lives and continue a larger conversation about love, friendship, family, home, and how society shapes our identity.
