Photo: Scheherazade Tillet By the end of the week, there will be not one but two new lens-based art exhibitions just blocks apart in Newark, New Jersey, that explore Black girlhood. Both are rooted in the intertwined personal, professional, and political passions — activism, art-making, curation, cultural criticism, scholarship, psychology and politics — of two extraordinary, multi-hyphenate Black sisters: Scheherazade and Salamishah Tillet.

Down the street at the Project for Empty Space is the debut solo show of Scheherazade’s photography, entitled “Black Girl Play” .
