Part 1/4
of being in Dialogue with @tundeoduga for Act 1 of my recent solo show BOYZ II BEASTS @centralserverworks . Josh and I had an hour conversation about the roots of my purpose for why and how I make the art that I do. This 4 part dialogue is a comprehensive entry point into my mind and thinking that influence my art rituals and creative ethos especially as it relates to the recent BOYZ II BEASTS body of work.
I believe in mostly letting the art speak for itself, but Josh and I felt very strongly that there should be a moment that exists where we speak to the moment of creating the exhibition and the work to share, educate, contribute, and most importantly collaborate with our voices and perspective.
