In the SOMArts show curated by Meymey Lee, Sasha Vu and Celi Tamayo-Lee, bus lines are the arteries that connect immigrant, Black and working-class neighborhoods — the heart and soul of San Francisco culture. The multicultural crew of artists tells collective and personal histories through installations, paintings, audio and video. In the context of record-shattering rent prices and ongoing displacement, their memories feel like precious keepsakes.
‘Muni Raised Me’ is on view at SOMArts through April 9, 2023.
