LEILAH BABIRYE

Leilah Babirye’s works are presented in a solo exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston. The exhibition is centred on a new body of evocative sculptures, inspired by the idea of the queer wedding, which feature the artist’s inventive reuse of debris with her deft carving of wood and work with ceramics. Each sculpture adopts a role – bride, groom, ring bearer, flower girl, bridesmaid, or groomsman – in a vivid installation that is both wedding ceremony and celebration. The exhibition will be accompanied by the artist’s first book.
