Sonya Clark, a pioneering fiber artist, will showcase her groundbreaking work in this major traveling exhibition, which brings together her large-scale, community-centered projects for the first time. The exhibition, co-organized by the High Museum, the Cranbrook Art Museum, and the Museum of Arts and Design, explores themes of race and the Black experience.
