Raab is interested in how these communities have been systematically disadvantaged and treated as separate from the wards of Washington, DC located west of the Anacostia River. The images in The Invisible Wall: Photographs from East of the River are the result of her walks throughout the community, during which she seeks out scenes and subjects without judgement or expectation. On August 2 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m., Raab will set up her camera in the lounge of Anacostia Arts Center, to take photographs for another project, The Loves and Fears Project. She will be creating portraits with collaborators who will write down their greatest loves and fears. Each guest will receive a digital copy of their portrait. Further details are forthcoming on the gallery’s website.
