Clifford Ward: I’ll Make Me a World, prologue, at Grounds for Sculpture

Artworks Trenton announced an upcoming exhibition, Clifford Ward: I’LL MAKE ME A WORLD, prologue, that will run from February 1 through April 12, 2025, at Grounds for Sculpture.

The opening reception takes place February 1 from 6-9 pm, offering visitors a unique opportunity to experience Ward’s captivating artwork.

Clifford Ward: I’LL MAKE ME A WORLD, prologue brings together selected works from multiple series of works by Ward, celebrating the intersection of Ward’s artistic journey with the imaginative and forward-looking spirit of Afrofuturism. His works are inspired by the mythologies, cultures and pathos of the African Diaspora, Australian Aborigines, Native American and Māori people.

Curated by Addison Vincent, Artistic Director of Artworks Trenton, this exhibition represents a unique collaboration between Artworks Trenton and Grounds For Sculpture in Hamilton. The Artworks Trenton exhibition is a first look at select pieces to be featured in GFS’s upcoming exhibition, Clifford Ward: I’ll Make Me a World. The exhibition at GFS is guest curated by Noah Smalls and will be on view in its Museum Building from May 18, 2025, to January 11, 2026.

Special events, including an artist talk and community events, will be scheduled throughout the exhibition period.
