    • Yale Schwarzman Center | RUSUNUNGUKO (liberty / independence / freedom)

      May 21 – May 31
      The Dome Gallery, Yale Schwarzman Center
      Add to Calendar 2026-05-21T00:00:00 2026-05-31T00:00:00 America/New_York Yale Schwarzman Center | RUSUNUNGUKO (liberty / independence / freedom) Designer and visual artist Nontsikelelo Mutiti is the assistant professor and director of graduate studies in graphic design at the Yale School of Art. Mutiti’s printed works, films, and installations engage with the history and aesthetics of hair braiding in black life. “Ruka” (Shona for “to weave, braid, or knit”) brings social binding alongside physical braiding; the arrangements of salons, living rooms, and porches where hair is braided provide social contexts for her projects. Witness Mutiti's latest work, RUSUNUNGUKO (liberty / independence / freedom), on view beginning April 11, 2024, in The Dome Gallery at Yale Schwarzman Center during the building's open hours.

The View from Here amplifies the voices and perspectives of New Haven youth through the creative process and sustained work with photography and the collections of the Yale Center for British Art. The program also fosters connections with the Yale School of Art through close collaboration with a current MFA student. This year’s exhibition, Finding Our Paths, features the work of nine student photographers. During fall 2025 and winter 2026, they developed technical skills and the practice of looking with intention to express their unique perspectives. The result: images that capture moments of observation, connection, and self-reflection, revealing how young artists navigate and reimagine the worlds they inhabit. Grounded in optimism, the work of these remarkable students charts visual pathways through their daily lives, histories, and communities as they use and reimagine photography to seek light, possibility, and new meanings. The View from Here 2026: Finding Our Paths is presented across Yale’s campus. The students’ work is also on view in the High Street windows of the Yale Center for British Art beginning April 6, 2026.
