Archiving is essentially afrofuturist mothering magic…

Mother Mother remembers herself and her creations with great care. With each new piece added to the archive, she codes a part of herself forward for the future generations. She consciously sifts, gathers, documents, and assembles each element in the Library with love and gratitude. She builds this world of memory for the mothers and creators of tomorrow to witness, explore, and engage with her life and her work with tender presence, joy, and curiosity.
