Bronx, NY - En Foco is thrilled to announce the opening of Translucent Tethers: 2024 Fellowship Exhibition, featuring the work of ten early-career photographers of color selected for the prestigious En Foco Photography Fellowship, now in its ninth year. The exhibition will showcase the exceptional work of Cali M. Banks, Jordana Bermúdez, Avijit Halder, Oji Haynes, Andrew Kung, Shina Peng, Sharon Miller, Lieh Sugai, Jennifer Teresa Villanueva, and Chen Xiangyun.

Where the new Nueva Luz issue will also be available for purchase. Viewing is available from Wednesday to Friday by booking an appointment at https://www.wallworksny.com/book-online. For additional times, email [email protected].

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.
