Go behind the scenes with artist Simone Leigh as she prepares to represent the United States in the 2022 Venice Biennale with a powerful new body of work, presented by the ICA in cooperation with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. • For the U.S. Pavilion, Leigh has created a new series of figurative sculptures in bronze and ceramic that furthers her commitment to highlighting the labor and resilience of Black women across global histories. Drawing upon artistic traditions from within Africa and the African diaspora, Leigh uses a strategy that she terms “the creolization of form,” merging disparate cultural languages linked through histories of colonization. • Learn more about Simone Leigh and La Biennale di Venezia at https://simoneleighvenice2022.org
