Bill Traylor was born into slavery in 1854 and only later did he start creating art. Traylor’s art is the sole surviving body of work made by a black artist of his era. He made well over a thousand drawings and paintings on discarded cardboard between 1939 and 1942. -JM

We waited until nightfall revisits repurposed cinemas through hunting images and sounds that trace the practices of belonging still embodied in the theaters’ remains.
