Akinsanya Kambon: Soul Sessions

Center for Art, Research and Alliances (CARA) New York / West Village / Union Square / Meatpacking
Exhibition on view: May 28, 2026 - Aug 16, 2026

Soul Sessions is an exhibition surveying the career of Akinsanya Kambon, tracing his practice across ceramics, painting, drawing, and archival materials. The exhibition spans two galleries: CARA and SculptureCenter.

At CARA, the exhibition foregrounds Kambon’s expansive practice through a selection of works on paper, paintings, wall plaques, and archival materials that surface stories of oppression, resistance, and spirituality. Borrowing its title “soul sessions” from weekly gatherings organized by Black soldiers during the Vietnam War, the exhibition emphasizes Kambon’s sustained engagement with historical events and ideas that shape liberatory movements—particularly Black resistance to colonialism and slavery.
