Saturday, April 17th
Hosted by the Wren’s Nest in Atlanta’s Historic West End, Sabbath Afternoon observes the question of what happens when the Black body undergoes intentional and restorative rest.
The afternoon featured a conversation in the amphitheater, moderated by Daryl L. Foster, about Sheppered’s visual memoir, Sons of Abraham.
An indoor pop-up shop where guests were able to purchase Shepperd’s book, designs, and other art objects.
Guest received complimentary lite bites and beverages by Nourish Botanica as they navigated the gardens and on-site installation.
The Shrine
An installation built to slow down time. Six wooden panels draped in mylar surround an arrangement of flora. The alien and the native textures help the viewer observe the wonderment of one’s self and nature.
