Faith Ringgold has passed away
Award-winning US author, activist, and painter Faith Ringgold has passed away at the age of 93
Artist Faith Ringgold, who wove her art into quilts, has passed away at the age of 93.
Faith Ringgold's work titled 'Die' depicts a picture of a US divided by racism, beginning with a white female figure standing in front of the US flag.
SYMBOLIZES THE SEARCH FOR UNDERSTANDING
The work showcases the violent face of the civil rights movement against the backdrop of the 1967 uprisings in Newark and Detroit. While Ringgold's work exposes the deep wounds and divisions of US society, it also symbolizes a search for reconciliation and understanding.
ADDRESSED THE RIGHTS OF BLACK WOMEN
Faith Ringgold's art was pioneering, particularly in highlighting the experiences of Black women and their place in US art history.
In her works, which she called 'Story Quilts,' she combined African-inspired handicrafts with traditional American quilts to celebrate the daily lives and cultural heritage of Black women.
