ChaShaMa is pleased to present Parallel Horizons, a photography multimedia exhibition featuring a collective of nine international visual artists, curated by Cameron Judith Peters.

The unique projects in this show move between evolving perspectives, identities, and communities, asking essential questions across local and global contexts. How do we search for a home when it is no longer the place we come from? What does the intimate and visceral act of eating reveal about our relationships with nature? If our species ceases to exist, what might our human archive look like? Celebrating a diversity of visual storytelling, from documentary to creative practice, Parallel Horizons presents voices that are both personal and courageous. They ask us to pause, listen, and actively engage in shaping our collective future.

By bringing these projects into conversation, we witness displacement and dreams alongside alternative ways of being in one’s body. “Through art we have the opportunity to experience an alternate reality,” writes Curator, Cameron Judith Peters, “Parallel Horizons beckons us to investigate, challenge, and reimagine the boundaries of what it means to be human.”

For each artist, the move to New York became a journey inward, fuelling deeply personal work. Honoring this shared foundation, the Parallel Horizons Collective was formed in 2023. Members have exhibited their work at the International Center of Photography Museum, Rotterdam Photo, the United Nations, and in publications such as National Geographic, New York Times, and PhotoVogue.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a two-part series of talks exploring its major themes.
