In response to a question asked at the Edna Manley lecture, there’s a link in my bio to a video of the Orange Hall children performing with the St Ann Senior Citizen’s Cultural Group at the presentation of my installation, 62 Men and 63 Women, that had an 1820 inventory of enslaved ppl’s names. Families today carry these names. The dancers are celebrating their ancestors.
Otherwise, visit RadiantEarth.org, under community to find the video from 2015.
DESIGN MIAMI, it was wonderful to exhibit at Todd Merrill’s booth. Thank you to all the movers (and shakers) who made it possible!
