USC Roski Annual Student Exhibition @ Fisher Museum of Art

May 3, 2023 – May 12, 2023

Viewing hours:  Tuesday – Thursday, 12 noon – 5pm

Viewing hours on Commencement Day, Friday, May 12th: 10am – 2pm

The USC Roski School of Art and Design’s latest generation of artistic voices have challenged the bounds of material, form and expectation to demonstrate the embodied process of making space in the world in its. Leveraging memory and experience, these artists have forged new definitions of painting, design, sculpture, and inter-media art. Bodies in Space, Roski’s annual juried student exhibition, highlights some of the most innovative, impactful, and unique examples of this work created by students across majors, courses, class years, and disciplines.

Artworks and installations displayed examine how one attempts to be perceived as part of a larger group or identity while still seeking to be seen as a unique individual. Roski students have attempted to reform media and styles in their generation’s own voice by referencing unique touchstones such as pop-up advertisements, artificial intelligence, climate change— deconstructing media, environments, identities, technology, and the body in the process.

Saw the Kara Walker Exhibit at USC today with silk_kittenn & I highly recommend it. Walker’s work explores Black American history, and she uses silhouettes, historic illustrations, classic mythology and much more to create her vision. Sobering & arresting artwork from one of the greats 🤘☮️

Ayeee, got a Paint Night Tonight for my Black Trojan family! A couple years ago, I had my exhibition "Black Girl Blues," but for this project, I was tasked with visually expressing the other end of the spectrum - Black JOY! I'm so excited for you all to see the image you'll be recreating. We will be at the Fisher Museum of Art from 6pm to 8pm 😆 So thankful to the Most High Yah for this opportunity! Fight On, and all glory goes to God. 💯 I hope to see y'all there.

How the pandemic has affected my art practice:⁠
During this pandemic, I found it that I have had more time to live with my art practice. So, I’ve been able to give and pay more attention to the paintings I’ve worked on. Also in this pandemic, I have been able to witness and experience the many social ills that we humans create and a lot of it has made for some great content to be used in my works.⁠
⁠
A short statement about included pieces:⁠
In this painting, No Man’s Land, I’ve painted a particular corner of the LA inner city, where we call the cornfields. This area is mostly a commercial zone so there really doesn’t exist a residential neighborhood but there once was a thriving community that existed when the Tongva people used to call this area their home. I’ve also painted Bird/God (tengu) characters attacking a coyote on this street corner. In this painting, I wanted to capture the idea of evolution and the idea of time. I feel all the fighting, struggles, competition, and dominance that all life on this planet is constantly practicing make up natural evolution.⁠
