ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
"Sacred Space: Brandywine Workshop and Archives" invites viewers to explore the profound intersection of printmaking, cultural heritage, and spiritual practice. This exhibition, reimagined for the historic Hammonds House Museum, celebrates over five decades of artistic alchemy fostered by the Brandywine Workshop and Archives (BWA), while intertwining with the rich cultural tapestry of the American South.
Founded in 1972 by Allan L. Edmunds, BWA has served as a crucible of creativity, bringing together artists from diverse backgrounds, particularly those of African, Afro-Latino, and Indigenous descent. Within these walls, printmaking transcends mere technique to become a sacred ritual, a means of cultural exchange, and a powerful metaphor for the African Diaspora and Indigenous experiences.
