  • Nick Cave | Soundsuit
    2025/02/23
    Nick Cave, born February 4, 1959, in Fulton, Missouri, is a contemporary American artist best known for his "Soundsuits," wearable sculptures that blend sculpture, performance art, and social commentary. Raised in a large family that valued resourcefulness, Cave's early experiences with textiles and transformation shaped his artistic practice. He studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and later at Cranbrook Academy of Art. The 1991 Rodney King beating profoundly impacted Cave, leading to the creation of the Soundsuits as a response to racial injustice and a symbol of protection and empowerment. These intricate suits, made from found objects, textiles, and human hair, obscure the wearer's identity while creating a powerful visual and auditory spectacle. Cave's work extends beyond sculpture to include performances that engage communities and promote social change, solidifying his place as a significant figure in contemporary art.

  • Artist Interview | Ephraim Urevbu
    2025/02/22
    I interviewed Ephraim Urevbu a contemporary artist based in Memphis Tennessee. He shared his life experiences growing up in Nigeria then coming to the United States to study art and the ways the US did and did not fit with his expectations. We discussed his painting E Pluribus Unum and his work on The Naked Truth Project which seeks to spark conversations for an honest telling of America's history. One of the things that I really loved about speaking with Urevbu was his ability to discuss serious and painful truth while simultaneously recognizing the good and hope for the future.

  • Artist Interview | Herb Williams

    Herb Williams is an incredibly talented sculptor bringing crayons to a whole new dimension. I sat down to talk to Williams about his background, his artistic influences, and exactly how and why he uses crayons to sculpt. He shared his memories of making art as a child as well as his experience working in a foundry making lost wax castings before he decided to pursue a literal dream of making sculptures out of crayons.

    2025/02/16
    Hilma af Klint was a painter making abstract art years before men like Kandinsky and she was exploring automatic drawing long before the surrealists. She knew she was well ahead of her time, which is why she stipulated in her will, that many of her greatest works were not to be displayed until 20 years after her death.
