Known for his figurative sculptures that use Dutch wax cloth (popular throughout Africa) to explore cultural identity, Yinka Shonibare here, at the North Carolina Museum of Art, Raleigh, transforms a wisp of the same fabric into a playfully monumental sculpture that captures the wind like a giant sail.
Beautiful capture. 🙏
Thanks!
Amazing – is it stationary, or does it turn in the wind?
It is stationary
Thanks –
Super cool!
Indeed Arati!
Beautiful! Exposed to the elements like that, I wonder how long would the sculpture last.
Not for many years
