Informed by a rigorous attention to a wide swath of historical periods, geographies, and artistic traditions of Africa and the African diaspora, Simone Leigh has developed a body of complex and profoundly moving work, pointing to unacknowledged acts of labor and care.
Join educator Alicia Vogl Sáenz in a slow art-looking exercise in conjunction with the exhibition Simone Leigh, followed by meditation. No meditation experience necessary; instruction will be given.
