CINCINNATI--Pakistani-American artist Anila Quayyum Agha's super popular sculptural installation All the Flowers Are for Me (Red) will once again be on display at the Cincinnati Art Museum, from Dec. 5-Feb. 7.
First on view at the CAM in 2017, this immersive artwork features a decorative five-foot laser-cut cube, which illuminated and splayed geometric and floral shadows across the floor, walls and ceiling of the gallery room.
According to the museum, All the Flowers are For Me (Red) is inspired by Islamic architectural forms and Agha's personal experience as a "diaspora artist." [More]
