This image documents an important artistic moment in the career of the American artist Faith Ringgold (1930–2024), a painter, sculptor, writer, and influential activist. The photo was taken in the 1960s inside her studio in New York City, where she lived and worked. It shows Ringgold engaged in creating one of her works, with her painting American Black Woman visible in the background—a piece that reflects her determination to assert her own artistic voice and identity. During this period, Ringgold was actively involved in the Black Arts Movement and feminist circles, using her art as a means of storytelling and to shed light on social injustice, giving her work a profound human and intellectual depth beyond the canvas.

“In Africa, stories are not only told in words, but carved into memory and carried upon heads.”
South African artist Zizipho Poswa presents powerful sculptural works that celebrate African identity and the strength of women through large-scale ceramic and bronze forms. Inspired by the traditional practices of rural African women carrying heavy loads, Poswa transforms this everyday act into monumental oval shapes that express resilience and dignity. Her work bridges traditional craftsmanship with contemporary expression, with each piece telling a story of memory, labor, and femininity. This series is among her most ambitious, with some sculptures reaching over 2.4 meters in height, and her works are held in major international collections such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
