Images bombard us everyday. Issues of control, information overload, skewed versions of events, and suppressed narratives are explored by artists Francis Estrada, Syed Hussain, and Farideh Sakhaeifar in Numb Images, thoughtfully curated by Rashmi Viswanathan in the gallery of Old City nonprofit Twelve Gates Arts.
