ニュー・ミュージアム・オブ・コンテンポラリー・アートさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニュー・ミュージアム・オブ・コンテンポラリー・アートInstagram)「Works from Nari Ward's 2018 "Breathing Circles" series prominently feature the Kongo cosmogram, a symbol originating in West Africa. Ward first came across this pattern cut into the floorboards of the First African Baptist Church in Savannah, GA, an eighteenth-century church founded by formerly enslaved people that served as a stop on the Underground Railroad. The breathing holes mark both a functional role, allowing escaped slaves to breathe as they hid in the church, and a means of sustaining a culture that the transatlantic slave trade attempted to destroy. #NariWard @nariward . .
