“Burden,’’ from “Migrant Series’’ (mixed media on canvas), by Mohammed Daoudi, in his show “Finding My Way Around Home: Art in the Times of Xenophobia,’’ Sept. 13-Dec. 16 at the Conant Gallery at Lawrence Academy, Groton Mass.
The gallery explains that the work stems from Mr. Daodi’s experiences with immigration and xenophobia. “Born in Tangier, Morocco, he came to New York to study what he calls ‘money-making subjects’ at Skidmore College and the Columbia University School of International Affairs. Between these experiences and his marriage to a Jewish woman, his background is a rich patchwork of cultural experience, giving him a unique perspective on humanity.’’’’
