Themba Sibeko
“The artwork captures black ballerinas who just made it to the big stage, after years of toiling and resilience they finally made it. It's one thing to dream, it's another to live in it and that's what the piece represents. The pose the dancers have show a sense of belonging and confidence demonstrating the belief that they belong on big stages.” Learn more about Themba here.
Lorna Simpson
Lorna thinks about who gets to determine who we are. She asks, “Do we get to determine that, and what are the parameters of that, given the society that we live in?” Learn more about Lorna here.
Thank you for being here. It’s still light out after ice-skating. The days are getting longer, time still shorter. Enjoy! Till soon. XxA
