Join us and CulturalDC for the grand opening of Seed. Murjoni Merriweather’s installation in the Mobile Art Gallery will be an immersive experience exploring the artist’s personal experiences with growth, patience, and self-care. Connecting with the spiritual and symbolic nature of our planet, Murjoni will cover the gallery floor in soil. Her clay sculptures will be lifted, appearing to grow from mounds of earth. The space will include an interactive space with an opportunity to dig in the dirt and discover hidden items to inspire self-reflection. This exhibition is a story of growth. It pushes the boundaries of her work outside of the traditional bust, taking her work out of the white walls of a conventional gallery into an environment created for the individuals her sculptures represent, intended to invoke self-reflection and calm. The Mobile Art Gallery is open Wednesday- Sunday 12-5pm until December 22, 2024. |
