What Was, What Is, What Will Be
2024, 75″ x 40″x 40″, Steel, Nylon

Created as a site-specific for the Rotunda Gallery at Montclair Art Museum. This work is delicate dance shawl fringe that encircles an 1896 marble figure by sculptor William Couper, “Crown for the Victor (Beauty’s Wreath for Valor’s Brow)” (1896), that had been in the gallery for the last 20 years. The shawl fringe is a way to layer my Delaware Lenape history and that of the sculpture showing both our histories together.
