About the Exhibition
Julie Green: The Last Supper features nearly 1,000 hand-painted ceramic plates, illustrating the final meal requests of people on death row in the U.S. This exhibition encourages viewers to consider the U.S. prison system and the way we think about those who are within it. By linking us together through our basic need for food, artist Julie Green sparks a human connection and opens our hearts and minds to individuals in our society who are often disregarded and forgotten. The artist invites people to consider our criminal justice system and societal norms while surrounded by the large installation of hand-painted ceramic plates. This artwork is an example of the power of art to capture attention, convey a message, evoke emotions, prompt thinking, and spark action.
