Fahamu Pecou “M E M O R Y”

Lyons Wier Gallery

This event has ended.

Lyons Wier Gallery presents “M E M O R Y,” a new exhibition of paintings, drawings and three-dimensional works by Fahamu Pecou.

“M E M O R Y” evidences a conscious, nonlinear step into all periods and styles of Blackness. It is a shift away from Western notions of Blackness towards a decidedly Black aesthetic envisioning a fresh perspective on Black identity past, present and future. With “M E M O R Y,” Pecou depicts Blackness unbound - free from the confines and limitations informed by lingering misrepresentations of the Black body and prevailing misconceptions of racial inferiority, poverty and/or corruption.
