Open June 23 – July 24

Art Gym Gallery is excited to present Inculcation, with new work from artist Sharifa Moore. Please join us for an opening reception on Thursday June 23 from 6-9PM.

Inculcation represents a construction of a world saturated with images—advertisements for cleaning products, soap, and other tools of domesticity—Visual media that blends into the blur of the everyday messages that communicate the ideals of the dominant class. This exhibition explores experimental filmmaking practices that investigate the domestic space, evolving expectations of those who identify as women, and the ways that ideologies are inculcated early in our lives.

Sharifa Moore (she/her) is a curator, interdisciplinary artist, and educator. Her current roles include serving as the executive director and associate curator at Denver Digerati, and as a board member of Tilt West, where she is the co-managing editor and co-curator of the Tilt West Journal. Previously Sharifa was the chief curator of art and education at the Center for the Arts Evergreen and associate curator at the Emmanuel and Next Stage Galleries on the CU Denver campus. She holds an AAS in Computer Information Systems, a BA in Art History and a BFA in Photography from the University of Colorado Denver (summa cum laude), and is finishing her Masters in visual studies with an emphasis on experimental film.
