The Irma Freeman Center for Imagination presents Tenderness, a solo exhibition by Glendon Hyde. This exhibition opens this week Friday, October 6th, 2023. 7-10 pm. live musical performance by Craig Philip

Glendon Hyde explores a desire to tell outsiders’ stories through reimagined items once gifted by loved ones, friends and neighbors. Hyde embraces living life outside cultural norms and through queerness, community support, unexpected materials, he shares his artistic vision.

There is a desire here to give worth to another’s trash. Hoping to evoke thoughtfulness. Hyde wants the viewer to reassess their need for more. He takes an environmental stance and opens a conversation about unbridled capitalist production. Here is a dynamic where Hyde repurposes all neglected materials, in a way that lets his creative voice shine through.
