SUMMARY:UNCW’s CAB Art Gallery Presents:  “Sarah Peoples: Through the Oyster Speculum”
DESCRIPTION:“Through the Oyster Speculum” is an exhibition of artworks by Philadelphia based\nartist\, Sarah Peoples\, opening in the University of North Carolina Wilmington’s Cultural\nArts Building (CAB) Art Gallery on Monday\, June 22\, 2026.\nThe exhibition will run through Wednesday\, September 9\, 2026. A public reception will\nbe held on Thursday\, August 27\, 2026 from 5:30 p.m. – 7 p.m.\nSummer gallery hours are Monday\, Tuesday\, Wednesday\, and Thursday\, 10 a.m. to 4\np.m. and closed on Friday\, beginning May 22 – August 10\, 2026.\nRegular gallery hours are Monday\, Tuesday\, Wednesday\, and Friday\, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.\nwith extended hours on Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.\nThe CAB Art Gallery is located on UNCW’s campus on the ground floor of the Cultural\nArts Building\, near the building’s main entrance. Visitors can access the gallery from\nSouth College Road or Racine Drive\, and parking is available in front of the box office\nentrance to the building.\nFor more information visit https://uncw.edu/seahawk-life/arts/venues/cultural-artsbuilding/\nand https://linktr.ee/cabartgallery\nSarah Peoples: Through the Oyster Speculum\n“Such a predetermination to eat this big universe as her oyster or her egg\, and to be\nabsolute empress of all height and glory in it that her heart could conceive\, I have not\nbefore seen in any human soul\,” Thomas Carlyle on American Transcendentalist\nMargaret Fuller’s hunger for experience.\nIn a multimedia exhibition of sculptural installation\, light\, and sound\, Sarah Peoples:\nThrough the Oyster Speculum reveals the stories\, legends\, myths\, and expressions\ndeployed as shorthand to make sense of American identity and culture. At the\nexhibition’s center\, a large diorama recreates the grand American wilderness as a\ntheatrical tableau. This immersive environment invites close inspection\, revealing\ninstability and distortion beneath familiar narratives. Using humor and wit\, Peoples\ndemonstrates how the very ideas meant to define a place can simultaneously obscure\nother truths\, creating parallel realities or mirror worlds that coexist rather than resolving\ninto singular meaning.\nThe world\, and specifically American ideals\, are Sarah Peoples’ oyster\, and she cracks\nthem open through a multivalent speculum. Derived from the Latin specere\, “to look\,” a\nspeculum refers to three distinct items: a mirror\, the iridescent beauty mark on a bird’s\nwing\, and a medical tool for inspection. In these capacities\, a speculum reflects\, signals\,\nand reveals. The installation of artworks encapsulates all meanings of the word. By\nforegrounding these disparate functions\, the exhibition spotlights the unstable ground\non which perception rests. To look through the oyster speculum is to see through the\nlenses of culture\, history\, and desire.
