Office Hours: Toward Alternative Futures imagines new possibilities through acts of refusal and redefinition. The selected works center themes of visibility, embodiment, and resistance by exploring 

how marginalized communities navigate oppressive societal systems. Through strategies of appropriation, remix, and parody, the artists challenge mechanisms of power and offer vibrant, 

nourishing portals.



Office hours are typically a time for asking questions, testing ideas, and thinking aloud. Situated 

within academia, this communal space becomes an active ground for dialogue and reflection. At a moment when the future feels uncertain, this exhibition turns the shared space into an exploration of 

creative practices vital to imagining and building alternative futures. As student curators, we invite 

you to join us in questioning, reimagining, and reshaping together a more just world.
