DEATH PLANTED A GARDEN September 6 - October 20, 2024

The Art Chose Me, in collaboration with Catherine Edgerton and Pop Box Gallery, are thrilled to present Death Planted a Garden: the inaugural exhibition at Queen Street Magic Boat. Queen Street Magic Boat was conceived in the historic home, garden, and studio space of artist, organizer, and dive instructor Catherine Edgerton.


This uniquely immersive art experience features twenty-two Triangle-area visual, sound, literary, and multidisciplinary artists exploring their lived experiences of loss through activation of the entire property—the house, outbuildings and the land. 


Artists: adé Oh, Alia El-Bermani, Cassandra Rowe, Catherine Edgerton, Destiny Hemphill, echo hower, Elsa Hoffman, Gadisse Lee, Hiva Kadivar, Hong-An Truong, Ivy Nicole-Jonet, Jim Lee, Jodi Hart, Kaleidoscopic Dream Projexns, Kwaku Osei, Lamar Whidbee, Mavis Gragg, Patrizia Ferreira, R Stein Wexler, Saba Taj, sumi dutta, Teddy Devereux

Queen Street Magic Boat:

406 N Queen Street, Durham, NC  27701

Gadisse Lee, The Yawning Grave, ed. 2/10. 2018.

Can You Contribute?

QSMB is a community-supported project. 

In response to the devaluing and underfunding of the arts, Queen Street Magic Boat

reimagines an historic home in Downtown Durham as a place of radical inclusion, an exhibition venue,

creative residency, native garden, workshop and community gathering place.
