Speed Art Museum s Promise, Witness, Remembrance Gets an Assist From Design Studio Team
Speed Art Museum’s latest exhibit, honors the life of Breonna Taylor. Not only does the show reflect on Taylor’s murder at the hands of the Louisville police, but it explores the loss of countless Black lives to gun violence in the US.
Those three words that make up the exhibit s name come from Tamika Palmer, Breonna Taylor’s mother, and they divide the show into three crucial segments. “Promise” finds artists discussing the origins of our country and its founding, along with the symbolism that speaks to the realities of our ideologies. With “Witness,” they explore the moment we find ourselves in, with a country that exploded in protest last summer after police murdered Taylor and George Floyd. Finally, in “Remembrance,” they honor the Black lives lost to gun violence and the ongoing legacy of police brutality in the US.

Background: “The Necessary Trouble Toolkit makes it simpler for new advocates to confidently and sustainably join the fight to end police brutality,” says Sola Biu. “Civic engagement is incredibly complex in the United States, which makes it tough to understand where to begin. Our research indicated that a lot of people want to create change but feel uncertain about the next, most impactful step to take. In response, we created an actionable learning resource that decodes the process for new advocates, and for people who want to self-educate and take an active stand against police brutality.”
