A Piece by Bisa Butler

“Technicolor quilts that celebrate and archive Black excellence.”

Arielle Sadé

“Bisa Butler inspires me through her use of quilting as portraiture and historical preservation. Her vibrant textile works honor Black life, ancestry, and everyday experience while challenging historical absence within traditional archives. I am particularly inspired by how she uses fabric as both material and narrative, allowing color, pattern, and texture to communicate memory, identity, and emot”

“PBS's Craft in America reminded me that I'd like to see one of Bisa Butler's quilts in person someday. This is a recommendation for PBS, the Craft in America series, quilts, Bisa Butler, and art that stops you in your tracks.”
