‘Duppies’ in Greenwich

In sculptor Nickola Pottinger’s show, ‘‘fos born,’’ at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, Greenwich, Conn., through Jan. 11, 2026.

The museum says:

“Nickola Pottinger’s practice spans drawing, collage, and sculpture. Her objects often appear in the round, on the wall, or sometimes within tableaux. She refers to her sculptural works as ‘duppies’ (Jamaican patois for ghosts) in reverence to her Jamaican ancestry and the West Indian community in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, where she was raised and still resides today. Composed out of recovered heirlooms, excavated and recycled materials, Pottinger creates pigmented paper pulp from family documents, past artworks, and rubble using a handheld kitchen mixer.’’
