Still Sounds Feat. Photo Show by Sophia Lawson & Special Guests
January 18, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 1:00 am
FreeMohawk presents Still Sounds featuring A Photo Show by Sophia Lawson & Special Guests Wednesday, January 18th!
Still Sounds is an intimate retrospective of all things Mohawk through Sophia Lawson’s lens. Her work offers a personal look into the venue’s biggest shows through the intentional use of color and composition while navigating her own connection to live music. Still Sounds will include photos of Japanese Breakfast, Big Freedia, Spoon, Phoebe Bridgers, and more.
The exhibition features 14 framed photographs taken at the iconic Red River venue after its May 2021 reopening. A visual installation of projections and CRT TV walls designed by Phantastic Lights will run alongside the framed works featuring videos and photos taken by Lawson from 2013 – 2022.
A special guest performer will be announced in January. Free pizza provided by our friends at Hoboken Pie.
