Small Axe, 2025

Andil Gosine shares with Small Axe his deeply personal experiences with Lorraine O’Grady, a singular force in his life whose influence has shaped his thinking and artistic practice since 2010. Reflecting on their years of collaboration, Gosine begins his tribute by recalling the creation of the video Landscape (Western Hemisphere) for the 2010 Buffalo art biennial Beyond/In Western New York, using it as a lens to explore O’Grady’s unique creative process.
