"'Mama’s Baby, Daddy’s Too' is an exploration of how ancestry influences artistry... we are all influenced knowingly or unknowingly by our ancestors. Particularly in the African spiritual religious traditions, whose ancestor worship is paramount to its culture. In these traditions, ancestors, their practices, songs, likes, thoughts, hobbies, and skills are always present to learn from and to build on. So many things we believe we think up are simply ancestral memories coming forward. The artists in this exhibit, showcase that ancestral influence and in many ways represent the multiple planes of information handed down from generation to generation."
