The New Black Yoga
This large-scale Rashid Johnson scarf features a grid of photographic imagery from the artist's 2011 film “The New Black Yoga.” The images capture movements from five performers at sunset on a deserted beach, conjuring a range of potential yet elusive narratives. This 100% silk twill scarf has a semi-gloss surface with slight transparency.
Rashid Johnson is among an influential cadre of contemporary American artists whose work employs a wide range of media to explore themes of art history, individual & shared cultural identities, personal narratives, literature, philosophy, materiality, and critical history. From his origins as a photographer, Johnson’s practice quickly expanded to embrace a wide range of media, including sculpture, painting, drawing, filmmaking, and installation. Many of Johnson’s recent works delve into existential themes, such as personal and collective anxiety, interiority, and liminal space.
