Burke artist-in-residence Natasha Marin invites participants to assist in the intergenerational creation of a masquerade sculpture (a physical representation of spirits or ancestors). Provided with cowrie shells, African textiles, and beads, visitors can embellish cloth “pockets," which will become part of the final sculpture. Themes of displacement and belonging weave through this project, and Marin encourages participants to share stories of their own life journeys during the creative process.
