Reclaiming My Time features work by contemporary Black designers that engages ideas about cultural heritage, bodies at rest, and histories of labor and leisure. By featuring selections from the museum’s growing collection of seating design, this exhibition highlights the importance of taking time for rest and restoration. Our resilience and rejuvenation depend on our ability to rest well.
