Commissioned for the opening of OCMA’s new building, Of many waters... (2022), is a 24-foot-wide-by-16-foot-tall multimedia outdoor sculpture that operates as a combination and continuation of Sanford Biggers’s Chimera, Shimmer, and Codex series. ⁣ ⁣ A hybridized figure, the sculpture combines an archetype of a European reclining male figure with a 19th-Century Baule double-face mask assembled from metal sequins. The new commission is Biggers’s first Chimera-Shimmer hybrid—a new form that the artist considers “an object for future ethnography”—and the largest sequined work he has made to date.⁣ ⁣ On view through August 13, 2023.
