Multidisciplinary artist Regina Agu’s Shore|Lines is a large-scale panoramic installation and exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Photography (MoCP) that explores community memory within Black Midwestern lakeside communities, tracing legacies of historical migration from the Gulf South region to the Great Lakes. Using methods of oral history, photography, and archival research, her work examines waterways and natural environments as defining sites of Black life and belonging.

Building on artist Dawit L. Petros’s ongoing exploration of links between colonization, migration, and modernism related to Italy, East Africa (especially Eritrea and Ethiopia), Libya, and North America, Prospetto a Mare examines the ways in which colonialism and cultural memory are inscribed in the visual culture and built environment of Chicago.
