Description: |
The Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech presents an Artist Talk with Radcliffe Bailey on Thursday, September 14, 2017 at the Miles C. Horton Jr. Gallery. Painter, sculptor, and mixed media artist Radcliffe Bailey (American, based in Atlanta, Georgia) layers found objects, materials, and potent imagery to explore connections between past and present, personal experience and collective memory. In this installation, Bailey references historical and ancestral communities and migrations, including enslaved African peoples escaping Virginia’s Great Dismal Swamp, while examining concepts of identity race, culture, and the mnemonic power of objects.
