“Stories of Migration: Contemporary Artists Interpret Diaspora” at the Textile Museum

I will be out of town for six days (between May 25th and 31st), and so will not be shipping or open for visitors at the gallery. The Indigo Arts website will be active as always, I will respond to emails, and I will be able to ship orders after May 31, 2023.

Note:
With the high cost of shipping many of our customers choose to ship by USPS. For small and light shipments this is usually less expensive, but please be aware that their estimates are notoriously wrong. The service is not always as economical as it may appear, particularly on larger or more valuable shipments. USPS estimates only include insurance up to $100 for its domestic shipments, and varying amounts for overseas shipments. If you ask for full insurance we will recalculate the shipping cost and send you an invoice for any difference in cost.

“Stories of Migration: Contemporary Artists Interpret Diaspora”

Opening tomorrow at the Textile Museum in Washington DC: “Stories of Migration: Contemporary Artists Interpret Diaspora”. The exhibit includes works on the theme of migration by a number of contemporary artists, including William Adjété Wilson.

Artist William Adjété Wilson’s quilt, “The Black Ocean,” which will be on display in our exhibition, “Stories of Migration: Contemporary Artists Interpret Diaspora,” illustrates 500 years of African diaspora and includes West African pictographs. The small fragments of cloth are “a metaphor for telling the story of a larger world." William Adjété Wilson works in Paris, Benin, Togo, and Haiti.
