JEREMY DENNIS | Rise: Scenes of Resistance, May 17 - June 22, 2025 at Garrison Art Center

Garrison Art Center (GAC) is honored to present ‘Rise: Scenes of Resistance,’ a solo exhibition of photographs by Visiting Artist Jeremy Dennis, on view from May 17 through June 22, 2025. This marks Dennis’s first solo exhibition at GAC, showcasing work from his project, ‘Rise’ which reflects on his experiences and observations as a Shinnecock Indian Nation tribal member in Southampton, New York.
In his work, Dennis explores Indigenous identity, specifically the burden of the loss of culture through assimilation, omission of Indigenous history in school curriculum, and loss of land and economic disadvantage, through four projects or stories: ‘Rise,’ ‘Nothing Happened Here,’ ‘On This Site,’ and ‘Sacredness of Hills.’
