From the article:
What conversations could occur, our team wondered, if we paired the work of Kim Rice and Paul Rucker, two artists who use specific historical events and documents to offer an unflinching view of the reality of race in America? The result has been Liberty and Injustice, a compact but dense exhibit that examines gun violence, lynching, the role of police, inheritance, redlining, and white privilage.

This summer, Alex Ebstein interviewed Kim Rice for Inertia. Studio Visits. His review begins:
Kim Rice is an artist who transforms everyday materials and personal imagery into intricate, often large-scale installations that explore systemic racism as it has affected physical geography and personal history. I met Kim through her residency at Goucher College as the Unobskey Visiting Artist in Modern and Contemporary Art and had the pleasure of learning more about her work and process through conversations both in her studio and on campus. Her labor-intensive pieces are impeccably crafted, drawing viewers from across a space with their beauty, and delivering their critical content on closer approach. I met up with Kim in her studio at School 33 in Federal Hill to continue our conversations for Inertia Studio Visits and check in on what this prolific artist is up to next.
