Yinka Shonibare's 2018 installation, "THE AMERICAN LIBRARY", reimagines a traditional library space with vibrant, colorful fabrics. The bookshelves, lined with countless volumes, are covered in Ankara textiles, a popular fabric in West Africa. This bold use of pattern and color creates a visually striking contrast against the white walls and floor, questioning Western notions of knowledge and cultural representation.
