Current Space is proud to present Crip Algebra, a group show of three queer disabled artists exploring the calculations it requires to cultivate access in an ableist world. Alx Velozo (Baltimore, MD), RA Walden (Berlin, GE), and Saar Shemesh (Richmond, VA) have been part of a queer crip carework system with one another for years. This show explores the acrobatic math of surviving and caring as disabled people using rubber, fire, and film.

Please join us for the closing reception from 3-5pm. There will be an artist discussion between Saar Shemesh and Alx Velozo at 4pm both in person and on Zoom: https://vcu.zoom.us/j/81165313135

Masks will be required.
