Newark Voices

Yasmin De Jesus (2021)

Hear the artist’s story.

In this mural, a male and female of color gaze out in opposite directions as they listen, through headphones, to the sound of Newark voices. What they hear is represented by written words that surround the individuals, encouraging us to connect with others through storytelling and listening. This work reminds us that it is vitally important that we hear the stories of those who have been historically silenced.
