On Exhibit at The Muck: Intercultural

This photography collection features 25 self-portraits of artist Sheinina Raj in the traditional and authentic finery of various regions and nations with the backdrop of music by Nelly Furtado.

Each portrait and culture is also accompanied by an essay. The exhibition is further supported by four Quadraphonic Sound and Light boxes made in collaboration with Grammy winner Nelly Furtado.

Raj’s own crossborder heritage and intercontinental family history in Fijian, Canadian, American and British cultures are what first inspired her to embark on this serial self-transformation.

Raj has exhibited Intercultural around the world, including the U.S., Canada, Middle-East, Asia and the South Pacific. She has spoken publicly on behalf of Global Affairs Canada, the British Council and the Govt. of Fiji with missions to advance Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. In 2020 she was selected to represent the United States for the United Nations 75th Anniversary.

A portion of all sales will support arts education programs at The Muck. If you are interested in purchasing artwork or would like to schedule a curatorial walk-through, please contact Lisa M. Berman at curator@themuck.org
