WASHINGTON, DC — Honfleur Gallery is proud to present We Remember In Pattern, a group exhibition curated by Anika Hobbs and sponsored by Valley Place Arts Collaborative and ARCH Development, in partnership with Nubian Hueman. The exhibition opens with a reception on Friday, May 9 at 6:00 PM and remains on view through June 5, 2026.

We Remember In Pattern explores pattern as both language and lineage, bringing together three artists whose practices span textile, algorithm, and form. Rooted in pattern recognition as methodology, the exhibition asks how inherited knowledge lives inside design, and how repetition becomes a way of knowing.

Tabria Williford of Tawa Threads Co. renders the landscapes of America's National Parks as abstract tapestry, transforming her love of the outdoors into geometric rhythm and color. Diarra Bousso of Diarrablu generates fluid, wearable prints through algorithms rooted in West African textile traditions and natural forms from across the world. Hadiya Williams of Black Pepper Paperie Co. builds the Ancestor Index at the intersection of clay, historical research, and algorithm, creating an evolving digital and tactile archive of Black memory.

Together, their work reflects how our ancestors read the stars, weavers held entire cosmologies in counted thread, and a community knew itself by the cloth it wore. It is the animating force behind all three practices represented across various mediums.

A pop-up shop featuring exclusive works by each artist will be available during gallery hours. An artist talk is forthcoming; date and time to be announced.
