Yoruba Fish, Arianne King Comer
Ibile is a Yoruba word for “the messenger of our ancestors.” Arianne King Comer makes textile works—paintings--using centuries-old resist-dye processes. These works come from her spirit, represent her ancestors' call, and reflect the South Carolina Low Country that she calls home. When Comer arrives for her residency in early July, her solo exhibition, Ibile’s Voice, will slowly transform as her paintings are joined by the works of the community members who join her around the dye vat. This is a Call & Response event.
