Nari Ward: Until That Day

Nari Ward: Until That Day

At DESTE’s former slaughterhouse on Hydra, Nari Ward’s Until That Day gives found materials a sharp political and geographic weight.

 

The site-specific exhibition reflects on migration, race, and belonging through the experience of African communities in Greece, extending the Jamaican-born, New York-based artist’s long engagement with discarded objects as carriers of social memory.

 

Taking its title from Haile Selassie’s 1963 address to the United Nations, the show brings sculpture, performance, and music into conversation with questions of displacement, solidarity, and who gets to feel at home.
