Installation "In The Salon: The Crown Futures"

On exhibit from July 16 to January 8, 2017

Shani Peters in Collaboration with Sugar Hill Youth will open a multimedia art work and public engagement project directed by artist Shani Peters, The Crown Futures celebrates concepts of self-determination through explorations of traditional head-dresses from African, indigenous American, and Western cultures. This site-specific installation was created for The Salon by Shani in collaboration with local youth, ages 5 to 13, in workshops at the Museum. In the artist's words: I am interested in community building, activism histories, reinterpreted models of record keeping and popular media subversion. My practice seeks to share the imaginative rewards I receive from my creative life with the communities that I am physically and/or emotionally close to.
