About this Event

Co-presented with Museum of the African Diaspora


From the acclaimed fine artist Harmonia Rosales, a sweeping retelling of African myth illustrated throughout with Rosales’s spectacular paintings. In Chronicles of Ori, her debut book, Rosales retells the African myths she has long treasured, crafting an enthralling epic that spans the birth of the universe to the modern world of colonialism and resistance. From the powerful, temperamental deities called the Orishas; to the founding of Yorubaland by the shrewd leader Oduduwa; the young heroine Eve, born in a time of violence and despair, who would help her people regain their past splendor; and shimmering serpents and monstrous shadows who stalk the lands of mortals. Come for the vividly brought to life African myths but don’t miss Rosales’s artwork, featured in MoAD's current exhibition, Unbound: Art, Blackness & the Universe. In conversation with MoAd’s Chief of Curatorial Affairs & Public Programs, Key Jo Lee. FREE, $10-15 suggested donation
