For the cover story of Ursula magazine’s summer issue, British artist Sonia Boyce sat down in her studio to talk about the social, political and ethereal roles of wallpaper—a touchstone in her work. Directed by Yvonne Zhang, this is the seventh installment in our Material series—which explores, in print and on film, artists’ transformation of raw materials into finished works. Born in London in 1962, Sonia Boyce became known within the British Black Arts Movement of the early 1980s for her pastel drawings and photo collages that spoke to issues of race and gender, among many others. In the 1990s, her interests became more collaborative and improvisational—transforming performance into documentation and documentation into material for art works.
