As part of International Women’s Day (IWD) 2022, artist Tina Ramos Ekongo presents a series of portraits of key figures from the Black British Arts movement of the 1980s and 1990s, including Lubaina Himid, Sonia Boyce, Claudette Johnson, Marlene Smith and Maud Sulter.
About
By depicting them in a style that references both 16th century British royalty and tribal rulers from the African continent, Tina’s work pays tribute to the women who challenged and redefined the British art scene. Supported by Castlefield Gallery’s New Art Spaces and Manchester Independents.
The exhibition is in the windows of New Art Spaces: Warrington, the former Marks & Spencer shop on Sankey Street, Warrington. There is no need to book.
