Leilah Babirye: We Have a History

Babirye transforms discarded bicycle chains and inner tubes into towering, gender-fluid sculptures that honor her LGBTQ+ community while reclaiming African ceramic and wood-carving traditions. Her first U.S. solo museum show is raw, intimate, and impossible to forget.
