The word “inherit” often conjures an object of great value passed down through generations. But what does it mean to inherit the intangible? How do our bodies carry intergenerational memory and story? What do we choose to remember or forget? Through video, installation and photography—a pervasive medium with an innate connection to time—the artists in Inherit revisit, revise and reenact familial histories and archives to grapple with loss, longing and identity.

This exhibition is part of the 2022 Capture Photography Festival Selected Exhibition Program. The Capture Printing Prize is generously supported by Wesgroup.
