The critic and curator Sasha Bonét has called collage “the historical practice of Black imagination.” In this elegant online exhibition, Dawn Williams Boyd’s collages of cloth create powerful images focused on Black life and America’s history of racial injustice. Boyd is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and has been working in this medium for 40 years. Her ability to capture subtle characterization through piecework is astonishing. —L.J.
