Exhibition Description

This landmark exhibition highlights the sacred relationship between mother and child as reflected in contemporary art. Exploring themes of care, cultural inheritance, memory, and identity, the show features works by artists who either intentionally centre Black women and matrilineal histories or express deep appreciation for them through nostalgia, legacy and emotion. Curated by Dominique Clayton, it brings together over 20 artists including Bisa Butler, Carrie Mae Weems and Jamel Shabazz. The exhibition is co-presented with the California African American Museum as part of a five-year collaboration with Art + Practice.
