Firelei Báez: Bloodlines at Perez Art Museum

Bloodlines features a selection of works by Firelei Báez, who is known for her delicate and labor-intensive works on paper that explore issues of black culture, Afro-Caribbean folklore, and the complexities of diasporic experiences. Báez’s large-scale works illuminate the excluded historical narratives of women of color, while simultaneously placing her subjects in a futuristic setting where skin tone is no longer a sufficient signifier of race.
