New York

From Violence to Voice

Monday, October 26 – Saturday, October 31
Fridman Gallery
169 Bowery, New York

From Violence to Voice is an immersive exhibition exploring the experiences of individuals impacted by domestic violence and their journeys from silence to voice, and from pain toward power and self-determination.

Through personal testimonies, multimedia installations, movement, and participatory spaces, the exhibition centers resilience, agency, and self-expression. It also asks us to look beyond individual stories and consider the social structures that enable violence—and our collective responsibility to challenge them.

The exhibition offers a space for recognition, solidarity, and hope: a place to honor the courage it takes to survive, to speak, to reclaim one’s story, and to imagine a future beyond violence.

Gallery is open from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily. Admission is FREE and OPEN to everyone.

This project is made possible in part with funds from Creative Engagement, a regrant program supported by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and the Howard Gilman Foundation and administered by LMCC.
