Nard

"I'm Afraid of Americans. 72" x 72". The work now lives on its own ground. nard.art is back to work. Originals and prints, direct from me to you. Art is not decoration. Art is documentation.

As a child raised in the 70s we were too familiar with the images that depicted Black folks on products used by our parents and grandparents. Uncle Ben’s and Aunt Jemima syrup were the only rice and syrup that my grandmother would buy. As if this type of racial commercialization wasn’t enough to harm a race, additional “special” forces were needed. It’s good to see that times have changed.” Well not really. The Aunt Jemima t-shirts are available on Amazon today. These images continue to haunt when in the wrong hands. Time to reclaim them.

Collectors on the list see new work first. Link in bio."
