About The Work
She is the Mourning is derived from a recent public art project that the artist unveiled in 2021, comprising four large-scale works that adorned the facades and walls of buildings throughout Philadelphia’s Village of Arts and Humanity. The series shines a light on the under-acknowledged labor of Black women in working-class communities, especially in acts of care, protest, and mourning. Each of the scenes includes headless, monumental figures embedded in dreamlike and embellished gardens, punctuated with a poetic phrase. For this limited edition, Patterson will transform the prints by puncturing and attaching added elements to the paper’s surface.
ART FOR CHANGE will donate a portion of proceeds to the Brooklyn Museum. As in all series, artists will receive 50% of the net proceeds of print sales.
