Explore Myth-Science of the Gatekeepers (2024) at the Pittsburgh Glass Center. This captivating exhibit features 16 life-size glass statues of Black queer Kemetic deities, providing a modern take on ancient Egyptian granodiorite statues. Crafted through lost wax casting, glass blowing, and hot sculpting techniques, these busts revive and expand the traditions of gatekeepers—an ancient African lineage of queer spirit workers, artisans, and diviners. Discover a new Afro-diasporic spiritual system through this stunning collection.
