A Subtlety.

When I first walked in I asked my mom, "what is this stinky place?" It smelled sweet but  pretty weird.  I was at the Domino Sugar Factory in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.  I went to see Kara Walker's "A Subtlety". It was AMAZING.  There were these little boys holding baskets made of sugar and molasses.  Some of them didn't even survive the heat and began melting, falling, and breaking.  The walls were still dripping molasses from 10 years ago! As you walk to the back of the Factory there was a HUGE Sphinx with resemblance to a 'Mammy'.  She had very strong womanly features and she was made up of about 40 tons of sugar!

 

The message behind the whole thing is fascinating.  Sugar plantations, slave labor, race, sugar consumption, and just the REAL history of Sugar. 

 

 

A Subtlety was displayed from May 10th- July 6th
