TROY The latest exhibit at Collar Works asks unsettling questions and eschews any simplistic answers.
Called “Collective Health,” the exhibition reflects on the ripple effects of the United States’ community health crisis and delves into what it really means to be “all in this together.” Curated by Valery Jung Estabrook and Rachel Frank, it includes works from more than 20 artists, all grappling with different aspects of this current crisis, as well as those that are more deeply rooted in the country’s politics and health care system.
