South Side Community Art Center (SSCAC), in partnership with Blanc, presents litany, a group exhibition featuring the work of Candace Hunter, Rhonda Wheatley, Erika Allen, Cydney Lewis, and Sonja Henderson. Curated by SSCAC Public Programs and Engagement Manager jada-amina, litany expands upon a thematic foundation initiated by art historian Bethany Hill, PhD

litany is an invitation toward Black feminist possibility, liberation in all its forms, and the making of new worlds. A sequence of prayer, a devotion to remembrance, sustainability, and the sacred labor of self and collective care. An answer to a call, present to those who are listening.

Anchored in the understanding that land is both geography and body, structure and memory, the exhibition features sculpture, installation, video, and works on paper that reflect material practices of divination and return. Artists work with stone, wood, fabric, metal, and salvaged objects—gesture as lineage and listening.
