care as

The project brings together writers, curators, farmers, mamas, dancers, organizers, teachers, cultural producers, youth, and visual artists, to collectively exhume the (in)visibility of care for Black women.

By constructing functionally designed sculptural objects, cultivating land, archiving and documenting histories, and curating exhibitions and public programs, this cooperative community exemplifies how communities can repair and reactivate their eco-systems while navigating agency over neglected spaces. ☼
