In celebration of artist Firelei Báez’s first North American museum survey, the ICA Store has collaborated with the artist to create a unique, handcrafted silk scarf featuring one of Báez’s signature map paintings, Untitled (Temple of Time) (2020).
Báez’s exuberant, colorful paintings feature complex and layered uses of pattern, decoration, and abstract gestures alongside symbols rooted in Caribbean culture. In Untitled (Temple of Time), Báez overlays brightly hued, painterly gestures onto a chronological chart of world history entitled “The Temple of Time” (1846).
Crafted from sustainably sourced, 100% mulberry silk, the scarf has been fabricated in partnership with New York-based studio Lost Pattern. Measuring 65cm x 65cm (26″W x 26″L), the scarf may be worn in various styles. We love it as a headband, neck scarf, bag embellishment, or even a top.
