“One must thrive despite destructive rhetoric.” Tschabalala Self builds her figures out of sewn and painted fabric — exuberant, exaggerated Black women assembled from scraps into something joyful and large. She makes the celebration deliberate: since the culture keeps producing dehumanizing talk about bodies like the ones she depicts, she answers it with abundance, flourishing as the reply rather than the rebuttal.
