The Willing is a live performance (and a resulting video) that activates several of artist Helina Metaferia’s sculptures within a multimedia installation. Previous iterations were performed at the Sharjah Biennial in February 2023 and in Boston in 2022. During the performance, Metaferia engages in song, movement, and text alongside collaborators to share the stories of familial, artistic, and political ancestors, who have participated in defiant actions against colonization, white supremacy, and patriarchal oppression in the African Diaspora.
