Wilson's photographs appear alongside those of Lupita Murillo Tinnen--whose work "considers the individual's living quarters as intimate portraiture" while documenting the lives of undocumented immigrants--in Context, a new exhibit at the Brazos Gallery, located at Richland College, 12800 Abrams Road. Context hangs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays through Fridays through November 5. Visit rlc8.dcccd.edu/gallery.
