IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK

IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK is a performance and sculptural collaboration between Austin artists Jennifer Cumberbatch and Ginger Geyer, held in the stately Neill-Cochran House Museum in Austin, TX. Ginger Geyer’s exhibition of multivalent porcelains come to life with Jennifer Cumberbatch’s storytelling in a four month series of performances illuminating the African-Americans involved in the house’s past.

Ginger Geyer Sculpture

This will be the first time Geyer’s “everyday” trompe l’eoil pieces have been seen extensively in-situ. The hope is to both broaden the audience of the NCHM and to open up dialogue about Austin’s shared history.

Jennifer Cumberbatch Performances
By reframing the narratives of our lives, and empathetically imaging the lives of those before us, we gain new vision for an inclusive understanding of how we are all connected into the beloved community— then and now.
