This exhibition, which was created by Aminah Robinson specifically for the Columbus Bicentennial, is a very personal meditation on the neighborhood in which she grew up. She has created both a literal map of the neighborhood, which records how it has changed, as well as a visual memory map recalling her Uncle Alvin’s enchanting stories. As always, Aminah’s stories are richly illustrated on paper with paint, fabric, and buttons.
