Adebunmi Gbadebo (Ah-dae-bu-mee Bha-dae-bo) is a multidisciplinary artist working with paper, ceramics, sound, and film, exploring the archival record of her family’s ancestry in Nigeria and enslavement in America. Through her research, material selection, and technical process, the artist emphasizes the prejudice of the historical record, activating her practice to restore Black subjectivity.
She will be discussing her use of found and foraged materials and clay from the plantation where her family was enslaved and how we might think of sustainability and wild clay as a conceptual part of artistic practices.
Meeting link will be sent on payment and booking.
Mission
To co-create a shared community of material-led education and practice that is democratic, accessible, resilient and creative. We believe that creative education is a central agent for societal change and that clay is the common ground with which to build more equitable and creative futures.
