Join the Valentine’s Natalie L. Klaus Curator of Costumes and Textiles, Kristen E. Stewart, and Richmond fiber artist Nastassja Swift for an evening of performance and discussion.
Swift will present a dance performance featuring her larger than life wool masks, followed by a mini-documentary exploring her project “Remembering Her Homecoming,” a collaborative work that features Black women and girls as they dance, sing and shape an experience of storytelling and history, using some of Richmond’s racially historic spaces as a backdrop.
Following the performance and screening, a conversation between the artist and Stewart will explore the themes of claiming, interpreting, and sharing identity in Swift’s work and in the Valentine’s exhibition Dressing Identity: Caring for Collections and Understanding Ourselves.
