Inspired by the relationship between those who fled southern plantations and the migrating birds they followed north to freedom, Flying North memorializes Black underground resistance to Slavery from 17th-19th century New York. A hanging mobile depicting birds in flight, the V-formation of birds points in the northward direction. Flying North reminds viewers of the ways that black liberation histories have been entangled with non-human species in supportive ecological relationships. Eventually, I envision a series of these mobiles to hang from the ceilings of various New York spaces believed to have served important stations of the Underground Railroad. Their dangling presence would mark sites of Black liberation.
