The University Art Museum at New Mexico State University presents Necessary Futures, on view now through March 7, 2026.
This show highlights three New Mexico-based artists - sheri crider, Haley Greenfeather English, and Szu-Han Ho - whose work shares the strategic use of color, irony, joy, and hope as proposals for confronting and subverting the ongoing impacts of mass incarceration, capitalism, and colonialism.
Joining me today is sheri crider, a social practice artist and founder of Sanitary Tortilla Factory in Albuquerque, NM. Their work includes interactive sculpture, VR environments, and painting and collaborative works that engage wide, nontraditional audiences in galleries, prison cells, street corners, and classrooms.
