spearwave V1.N1

November 26, 2016
Midtown Exchange (Community Lounge)

Please join Kaamil Haider and Mohamud Mumin as they usher in spearwave, a monthly intimate exhibition and gathering space for conversations about art and culture. We hope this gesture will foster interconnectedness, and, using spearwave as a foil, allow these artists a fresh oppor- tunity to experiment with new ways of bringing to you the fruits of their artistic conceptions.

Kaamil Haider is a graphic designer, photographer and the current artist in residence at the Somali Museum of Minnesota. He has done branding for both national and international institutions. He applies a holistic approach to design while exploring the human interaction with designed entities. In his practice, Haider takes into account the cultural implications that give meaning to design.

Mohamud Mumin is a photographer and a visual storyteller based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is the current American Swedish Institute Malmberg fellow and past recipient of a 2013 McKnight Artist Fellowship for Photographers. Mumin has exhibited his work locally and nationally.
