Lorraine O’Grady Read Bio Collapse
Lorraine O’Grady addresses issues of diaspora, hybridity, and black female subjectivity, framing them in images and texts that utilize the both/and thinking of the diptych and of the diptych idea to destabilize the hierarchical, either/or categories underpinning Western philosophy. Her artwork has been acquired by the Tate Modern, London, UK; Museum of Modern Art, NY; and Whitney Museum of American Art, NY, among others.

Lorraine O’Grady
The blinding in Simone’s figures seems to me a self-blinding in order to see the self more clearly. A blinding that forces the one blinded to look inside more deeply. It’s a miracle, a radical act of self preservation, this blinding. It shuts out the exterior to be able to pay more and better attention to the interior. And the question it asks is: How brave and how honest will we be when we begin to look inside?
