Art Gallery
Origin/Identity/Belonging II
Michael Wewer
Oct. 10-Dec. 12
Exhibition Description
Michael Wewer is an Edmonds College alumnus who has been teaching photography at the college since 2001. His exhibition, “Origin / Identity / Belonging II,” is a continuation and expansion of his original project, now featuring 50 black and white portraits— more than double the number shown in the first iteration.
This expanded body of work includes not only students, but also faculty and administrators from Edmonds College—individuals who have come from across the globe to live, work, and contribute to this community. The portraits reflect a wide range of national origins, including regions with contested or unrecognized status such as Palestine, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Tibet.
Through these portraits, Wewer celebrates the rich cultural diversity and shared humanity within the Edmonds College community. His work offers a space for visibility, recognition, and connection—illuminating stories of origin, identity, and the search for belonging.
