CREATIVITY
A sculptural homage to Faith Ringgold that bridges industrial materials and human tenderness. Featuring a detailed portrait framed by a halo of concentric electrical cabling and circuit boards, this mixed-media piece honours Ringgold’s legacy of storytelling and intersectional activism. The stark, mechanical elements encircle her warm smile, symbolising how radical compassion, empathy, and ancestral story-stitching radiate through the modern, interconnected world.
Faith Ringgold (1930 – 2024), was an American painter, author, mixed media sculptor, performance artist, and intersectional activist, perhaps best known for her narrative quilts. Her work combined African American history, identity, storytelling, and quilting to produce works of fine art that often address matters of injustice, violence, feminism, and equal rights.
