Artist Statement: After an injury induced identity crisis, I found myself seeking a resolution to the pain I’d felt after carrying the burden of being a Black man in a white America. I soon found that painting and time in nature were a panacea to my ills. The nexus of my identity as a Black man in addition to these activities presented me with the foundation of my work: negroes nature nurture. That is, the juxtaposition between the Black American and natural experience. I present the Black experience in a meaningful way, seeking resolution to our issues and a future reimagined with healthy, thriving, and carefree Black people. I blend gestural acrylic palette knife strokes with energetic oil stick lines to inspire reflection, growth, and the sowing of seeds. Leveraging these mediums, I am able to create an active painting that explores the possibilities of a fruitful Black future. Through these paintings, an intentional reconfiguration of Black values and actions is had – resulting in meaningful change for future generations. That is, the sowing of seeds in our garden. The process used to create these radical abstractions lend towards continual discovery as opposed to a specific final destination. This process-based approach, inspired from my engineering background, creates boundless expression to encapsulate all feelings that exist within a given situation allowing the works to serve as both a medium of healing and a path forward to change for myself and others. Creating a community for other people like me searching for healing and love.
