In Focus: Sonya Clark

NMWA has produced a series of short films spotlighting collection artists. For this project, NMWA worked with the award-winning film production company Smartypants Pictures to create the series, each video profiling one contemporary artist in the museum’s collection. These short vignettes highlight the practice of each artist and reveal how initiatives for equity, those pursued by the artists themselves as well as institutional programs like NMWA’s, shape their careers and daily lives.
This video features artist Sonya Clark.

I saw some of her beautiful pieces on display at the National Museum. If you're ever in DC, check out the museum for yourself and tell your friends about it. 😊
