Artist’s Kaldric Dow and Alethia Jones look over the public art exhibit titled “Between Yesterday and Tomorrow: Perspectives from Black Contemporary Artists of San Antonio.” The exhibit is on display at the Cultural Commons Gallery located behind City Hall.SAN ANTONIO — The long, cloth quilt hangs heavy with the weight of the past. Made of fiber and faux leather, it’s stitched with details that invite the viewer to linger.
This is quilt maker Deborah A. Moore Harris’ reflection of America. Harris, an 11-year-Army veteran, has quilted for more than 20 years.“I like the freedom of quilting,” Harris, 67, said. “I’m very vocal through my art. This is American legacy. Our history helps to form how we think and behave in the future. You can’t hide it — tell the whole story.
Located behind City Hall, the gallery is managed by the city’s Department of Arts & Culture. The exhibition is free and open to the public. Viewing times are Wednesday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Barbara Felix, who curated the exhibit, said the diversity of art tells the story of San Antonio’s Black experience.
