Drawing inspiration from the Nari Ward: We the People exhibit, families are encouraged to make sculptures of their own with humble and found materials

Characterized by the use of found materials, Ward’s sculptures are rooted in the stories of everyday items and the possibility of creating new narratives through their transformation. Drawing specifically from Harlem, where the artist has lived and worked for over twenty-five years, Ward points to the cultural landscape and textures of the neighborhood.
