Sonia Boyce (b. 1962) Good Morning Freedom lithograph in colours, 2013 on Fabriano 5 wove paper signed and numbered on the reverse, from the edition of 100 published by Iniva, London
Good Morning Freedom was created by the acclaimed artist Sonia Boyce as part of her solo show ‘Scat’ at Iniva (the Institute of International Visual Arts, London) in 2013. The exhibition explored the significance of sound in art through videos from the artist’s multi-media archive The Devotional Collection, charting the history of black women in the music industry. The 1970's hit ‘Good Morning Freedom’ is an uplifting song by the British band Blue Mink, featuring the vocals of Madeline Bell, a US session singer who settled in the UK having started out singing gospel. The print features the infamous chorus lyric ‘A Bee Baw Ba-Ba Ba-Ba Baw’.
