#Repost @jar.key ・・・ Here is a clip of Jarrett Key @jar.key creating Hair Painting No. 21. S/O @tarasgroi for shooting this! Some context written by Zalika Azim @26thletter: "A native of Seale, Alabama, Key’s practice is heavily influenced by the history and trajectory of the American South. Trusting his queer, black body to both celebrate and examine these histories, Key’s paintings are shaped by lived experiences. Reviving the legacy of his grandmother and her use of oral storytelling, a tool used by many who did not receive a formal education, his work takes on language through movements that swoosh and swirl, dip, bend and rise rhythmically." ❤️ @codifyart @them @queerart . . #supportblackart #jarrettkey #qtpoc #codifyart #hairpainting #performanceart #africanamericanart #blackart #blackartist #art #storytelling #painting #blkcreatives #painterly #artistlife #veryblack #blackexcellence #contemporaryart #blackness #blackinamerica #blavity #hyperallergic #artnet
