As part of the In the Black Fantastic exhibition, this powerful community art project and billboard is landing in the Netherlands for the first time after several cities around the world. Wormsley – like the other contemporary Black artists in the exhibition – is inspired in her work by science fiction and afrofuturism. With this project, Wormsley exposes the oppression of Black communities and at the same time encourages Black people to take up space.
Wormsley: “This phrase became my mantra,” says the artist. “What conversations could arise, what trauma could be dealt with, and for some, for me, it is comforting to read something so obvious in this social climate. It will be magical, as fantastic as a prophecy.”
A portion of the profits from the sale of this t-shirt will directly support www.sibylshrine.com, an art collective and residency program that Wormsley founded and is rooted in radical care, tranquility and support for black women, womxn, trans women and femmes who are m/others and identify as artists, creatives and activists in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – and beyond.
