INVISIBLE MAN, 2021

Through the years, it has been common place for American media to showcase imagery of PEOPLE of COLOR being beaten and murdered. This has led to the desensitization of viewing such imagery and traumatization for said PEOPLE of COLOR. I can remember being nine years old and seeing Rodney King being beaten on television, I was terrified. That grainy old video from 1992 seems like one hundred years ago now, or perhaps something from the civil rights era.

Fast forward thirty years and those scenes have become all too common. Long gone are those old grainy videos, now we witness these scenes in high definition. And somehow our humanity remains invisible.

This painting was conceived as I witnessed the murder of George Floyd…in HD, once again feeling the terror I felt at nine years old.

Honored to be included in this upcoming exhibition

B22: Wiregrass Biennial is a survey of works being created by artists from across the Southeast region, and the group show strengthens the arts community in the Southeast by bringing regional emerging and established contemporary artists to a local Wiregrass audience.

B22: Wiregrass Biennial will be on view at WMA from July 22, 2022 – September 24, 2022, with related public programs with exhibiting artists during that time.

“Be prepared to join the artist on a personal journey dedicated to a narrative about love, loss, and a shift in his family power structure. The debut of this new series continues the artists exploration of the Black American experience, the investigation of cultural truths, the challenging of stereotypes, and the questioning of identity.”

I decided to make three of my collages available as signed prints during the month of February. I wanted to find a way to be accessible to everyone who is interested in the work. I understand that these opportunities have been limited. This is a great opportunity to collect.

SHORT STORY...

In January I visited
with my wife. I told my wife "I'm going to exhibit here". Moral of the story...there is...when you believe, you can achieve (insert reading rainbow music).

BYPRODUCT(2020) and BIRTH OF A NATION (2020) both on view at . if you have not experienced my work in person here is your opportunity.
These works are being exhibited"on loan courtesy of the artist". That just means that the work is available to be aquired. Museums are great spaces to exhibit and makes art accessible but I'd much rather the sign say "on loan courtesy of...you".
With that being said, these paintings will be aquired before the end of this exhibition.
