My first serious attempt at a double exposure. The top image is of a sculpture honoring enslaved Africans placed over a large sweet grass basket. The Africans brought the sweet grass basket weaving tradition with them when they came to America. #theGibbes Museum

Came to the Gibbes to buy one of the lapel pins that @themidnightsociety created for the museum and, to my surprise, I stumbled across a few other lapel pin options. ALSO, saw that the homie @motherlandessentials made some special soaps for the museum as well! Lit museum gift shops are the new wave. #theGibbes #LapelPin #Soap #GiftShop #Museum #MuseumOfArt

@thegibbesmuseum #1858prize winner Leo Twiggs speaks tonight at #thegibbes. Much of his work explores family history, cultural heritage, and how the past is manifest in contemporary life. His series ‘Requiem for Mother Emanuel‘ recently traveled throughout the southeast, earning acclaim as a powerful tribute to the nine church members slain during the horrific shooting at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston.

There was hip-hop and poetry show in the Gibbes Museum last night. And if you didn’t grow up here or live in a place where this kind of stuff happens all of the time then you probably don’t realize how big of a deal this is. But I guess that’s one of the perks of being Poet Laureate—you have the opportunity to open doors that were previously closed to you and your kind. Like, Samira legit played Tribe Called Quest jams and Marcus wrote about how Angel Oak was used to hang slaves and now it’s a “beautiful” tourist attraction and Asiah said a poem about seasonal depression and Willie did a poem about a lover named “Kyle” and Gina Mocha recited poems about black power. And there was free wine and good vibes and finger snapping and tears and laughter and references to Prince (of Minnesota) and I was just so happy to be in the room. At Gibbes. This was monumental. Thank you, Marcus Amaker. #TheGibbesMuseum #TheGibbes #Poem #Poetry #Art #HipHop #Charleston #MeetingStreet #Queer #Gay #Love #Blackness #AngelOak #Bones #Empath #TBT #HipHopIsPoetry

I've got a workshops coming up soon this spring. The first is a two day natural dyeing and weaving class at the Greenville Center for Creative Arts @gvlcreativearts and the next is a class at @thegibbesmuseum where I'll be teaching how to create and maintain a fructose indigo vat. Attendees will walk away from this workshop with their very own indigo vat and the confidence to keep it healthy . Link in profile for signup info.
Getting these lined up for a slump firing later tonight. They're going to be curved arc necklaces and some of them will head to The Gibbes Museum Shop next week.
