Collect a hand-painted ceramic amphora by Derek Fordjour, launched in support of charity: water.

Horn Trot Round, part of Derek’s HBCU Marching Band series, is a painting inspired by the role of shared rituals and group performance in culture – expressed through movement, costume, a theatrical disposition and a collective spirit. Translated to the cylindrical form of an amphora, the parade never ends. 

The artwork belongs to a series of seven, conceived and crafted in a transatlantic collaboration between Artspace and Avant Arte. Proceeds will support charity: water in their endeavour to end the global water crisis.

When considering the significance of mobilising for access to water, I think of the tremendous coordination required for life-saving collective effort. My HBCU Marching Band series is a perfect allegory for harmonious group action. Horn Trot Round is a continuous procession of rhythm and movement, a monument towards a future where more people have greater access to a life-sustaining natural resource."
