Ifé Franklin | 2024 Lot Lab | Processional for Mark, Phillis, & Phebe 

For over a decade, artist Ifé Franklin has been honoring the lives, histories, cultures, and traditions of the African diaspora and the formerly enslaved of North America through her “Indigo Project.” "The Resurrection of Mark, Phillis, & Phebe" is a sculptural installation inspired by the story of Mark, Phillis, and Phebe - enslaved African Americans in Charlestown who conspired to poison their owner during the colonial period of 18th century Boston.
On June 22, 2024, Ifé Franklin led a processional at Lot Lab in the Charlestown Navy Yard to honor and celebrate the lives and memories of Mark, Phillis, and Phebe. This processional was followed by sound baths and meditation led by Marlene Boyette.
