The Deering Estate announces the exhibition Deering Contemporary: Unraveled Tales on display daily from January 26 to March 23, 2025. Delving into the notion that individuals are the voices of all those who once traversed this land, this collective exhibition explores how ancestral stories and migration narratives continue to shape this constant evolving region, with roots extending back 10,000 years. Layers of stories intertwine past and present, continuously shaping the broad narrative of South Florida. The exhibition reflects on the passage of time, likened to a leaf falling to the ground, leaving its imprint—just as humans leave their own marks on history.
The opening reception will be on Sunday, January 26, 2025, from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. The opening reception is free with RSVP online .
The exhibition examines the pivotal role played by institutions and the community in preserving the historical and environmental heritage for future generations and it invites for reflection on the urgent need to address the rapid urban development threatening to erase the city’s history.
