グッゲンハイム美術館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (グッゲンハイム美術館Instagram)「Working in performance, photography, sculpture and installation, @BaseeraKhan explores issues of race, gender, migration, and cultural heritage. “Acoustic Sound Blankets” (2017) are comprised of thick, black, sound and light absorbing fabric with a small circular hole cut in the center. The round apertures of the three blankets are decorated with intricate gold patterns that are inspired by drawings of ancient motifs meticulously collected and transmitted by Khan’s generation of female family members for the past 100 years. Khan first conceived the works to be used in her performances as devices to keep her identity undisclosed in an act that she calls “aesthetic concealment.” Affected by the climate of cultural anxiety after 9/11, the works also reflect upon issues of Islamophobia and the perception of Muslim women in America. __ Click the link in our bio to listen to Baseera Khan and @Amani Al-Khatahtbeh, founder and editor in chief of @MuslimGirl, discuss feminism and Muslim identities, moderated by Assistant Curator @YlinkaBarotto. #BaseeraKhan #MuslimWomensDay #WomensHistoryMonth #5WomenArtists #GuggenheimCollection #Guggenheim」3月28日 6時16分
