SUMMARY:Phillips@THEARC: ZSUDAYKA NZINGA: HOME COMING / HOME GOING
DESCRIPTION:Learn More Here \nExhibition: ZSUDAYKA NZINGA: HOME COMING / HOME GOING\nJUNE 26-SEPTEMBER 26\, 2024\n$0 | Phillips@THEARC\n\n\n\n“From the ways we engaged on plantations and during Jim Crow\, to the ways we use interiors and say good-bye\, ‘home’ has an important lexicon in Black culture.” Zsudayka Nzinga  \nHome Coming / Home Going presents recent works by Zsudayka Nzinga that examine the diverse ways Black Americans find\, define\, and establish “home.” Nzinga’s work is grounded in social\, cultural\, and anthropological research into the history of her family\, community\, and diaspora. Combining mixed media on unstretched canvas—including acrylic\, marbling\, ink\, decorative paper\, and fabric—Nzinga explores figurative narratives of Black existence. Her intricately designed collages blend portraiture\, abstraction\, American fashion\, African textiles\, and symbols specific to Black American culture to express joy\, hope\, and the love of everyday life. \nThis exhibition is presented in conjunction with Multiplicity: Blackness in Contemporary American Collage. Nzinga’s work focuses on Black American identity\, showcasing the connections among cultural experiences of displacement and ideas of the self. \nIMAGE: Zsudayka Nzinga\, Run Away But Come Back Petit Marronage Act 1\, 2023\, Acrylic\, ink\, decorative paper\, and fabric on canvas\, 55 x 72 in.\, Courtesy of the artist
