US based artist Todd Drake and artists from Manama, Bahrain met for two weeks in May, 2011 to create a series of self portraits that reflect the feelings and thoughts of the wider Bahraini community. The 20 images made in Bahrain where displayed with images made in the US with the help of Todd Drake and Muslim Americans. Through the specifics of individual identities, this show draws together the universal themes of humanity, breaks stereotypes, and points out the power of art to unify all in the shared human experience.
