Opening Reception: In The Eyes by Taylor Thomas
April 28, 11:00 am—May 1, 5:00 pm MDT
Free

Sourced from her grandmothers’ photo archives and the archive of Film & Television media, Taylor Thomas questions the influence of external representational systems on the Black family. In her paintings, Thomas paints the skin of her subjects with chrome paint, a nod to television static and the ambiguous nature of knowing an “other”. Thomas’ collages explore the relationship between skin and body and interiority and exteriority as she abstracts the faces of members of Black Hollywood along with members of her own family into pixelated squares.
