Exhibition | Ebony G. Patterson: …when the cuts erupt…the garden rings…and the warning is a wailing…
“Beauty, for me, is a tool of seduction — a trap,” says Patterson, the Kingston- and Chicago-based Jamaican artist, whose immersive garden installation for the CAM serves as a “post-colonial” symbol of a past never buried and barely visible, grown from a complex entanglement of race, gender, class, and violence.
