The Marshall M. Fredericks Sculpture Museum always offers compelling temporary exhibitions that span historical, cultural, and fine art from around the world.
Through his work, artist Peter Bernal explores the emotional weight of cultural displacement and the struggle to reclaim a lost identity. Bernal’s work confronts the deep-seated challenges of alienation, history, and self-discovery, using art as both inquiry and healing. Anchored by the memories of his grandparents and the legacies they carried, Bernal imagines the lives of the ancestors he never knew, reconstructing what history has tried to erase. In reaching out through his art, he invites viewers to reflect on their own connections to heritage, identity, and the search for belonging–an experience that resonates across cultures and generations.
Searching & Finding Hidden Heritage is supported by the Michigan Arts and Culture Council.
