Claire Oliver Gallery Announces Solo Exhibition Remains By Artist Adebummi Gbadebo Remains Will Tour Museums Following New York City Debut On View January 13 - March 11, 2023, Harlem, NY
On view, January 13 – March 11, 2023, the exhibition continues Gbadebo's years-long exploration of her ancestral origins centered on the plantation on which her forbearers were enslaved and currently buried, called True Blue in Fort Motte, South Carolina. Gbadebo's interrogation of this lineage through her work encompasses her signature multimedia works crafted from indigo, rice paper, cotton, human hair, and new ceramic pieces fabricated from the soil where her enslaved ancestors were buried. These will be displayed alongside historical artifacts salvaged from antebellum architectural fragments from sites built on the labor of her forebears.
