Curator’s comments
In 1969, when Aminah's husband was stationed at the Air Force Base near Aquadilla, Puerto Rico, Aminah and their son Sidney accompanied him. Aminah spent much of her time making sketches like this one. She also recorded her memories of living in Columbus in pen and ink drawings. This practice of creating both work about home and work about the place that she visited became a pattern Aminah would follow throughout her career whenever she traveled.
