Cheryl Miller is a self-taught photographer & former city and regional planner. Her practice exists to create images of African Americans viewed through a kaleidoscope of everyday experiences. Her focus is on the rich visual development of communities, neighborhoods & people that make them thrive. Her 40 year film archive explores resistance and resilience as survivors of the Middle Passage, honoring our ancestors as witnesses, recipients of the gifts of strength, resilience, promise, and hope. Ancestor reverence helps to maintain our joy and channels these gifts. These images are of rites, rituals and social norms, resistance to enslavement, institutional racism and white supremacy. Miller’s work has been exhibited in local, national and international art institutions, and is in the permanent collections of Brooklyn Museum, Schomburg Center for Black Culture and Research, and the Museum of the City of New York. In addition, she was an Adjunct Lecturer at The Tisch Department of Photography and Imaging at NYU. She also taught photography in the NYC Department of Education.
