“Decadence of Another Kind”

January 19th - March 1st, 2024

"To Thine Own Self Be True" or "Keeping it Real in the 2020s" - Shakespeare offered this exhortation nearly 500 years ago and it must follow, as the night the day, that we are still seeking authenticity in an often confusing world. Let art lead the way, as these 12 artists have cracked the code in presenting their true selves to the world as Black artists. Their varied approaches to art include textiles, paintings, sculptures and installations which gallerist and curator September Gray says reflect both historical and cultural significance. This show, presented in partnership with Pigment International will be radical in its simplicity and beauty.

Okeith’s painting was shown at the “Louvre” in Paris, France 2023!!!

Described as one of the most promising artist to emerge in the 21st century, his pre-eminent works are large figures, eyes closed, executed with a palette knife into multi-faceted original paintings. For him, music and art are inextricably linked. Having played the trumpet when he was young, these two creative disciplines influence not only his life, but also his oil and acrylic paintings. He works only when inspired and the impetus always comes from life and music.
