Vessels of Revolution: Sculptor Akinsanya Kambon

Season 3 Episode 301 | 26m 46s

With each glimmering piece he creates, artist Akinsanya Kambon brings suppressed histories of both colonization and liberation to life. His ceramic works depict struggle and survival across the African diaspora, and stepping into his studio is a spiritual experience, as Laura Flanders discovers. Join Flanders and Kambon as they discuss how art keeps spirits alive.
