SUMMARY:ART: Artist Reception Featuring Nadroj Nina Holmes
DESCRIPTION:In his N.H. debut\, rising artist Nadroj Holmes will showcase work rooted in the living history of Black liberation movements and their cultural and folkloric expressions. Some pieces showcase the Black body with heavy suppositions that inspire liberatory thought. Holmes' works are amalgams of past and future\, facts and imaginings\, trauma and transformation.\n\nIn this exhibit\, the historical figure Gordon\, or Whipped Peter as he was commonly known\, is presented in ways previously unseen. Holmes commonly changes his familiar image\, which should highlight America's history of chattel slavery\, into images that encapsulate present-day public discourse. \n\nIn this particular reworking\, the countless scars on his back are removed. In their place is something bizarre\, amorphous\, and difficult to describe. \n\nThe individual images that make up the interactive piece "Delusions & Context" amalgamate the past and present to shape future discourse. \n\nA graduate of Massachusetts College of Art and Design\, Holmes also attained a minor in Africana Studies through Simmons and Wheelock Colleges.\n\nThe opening reception begins at 5 p.m. The Artist Talk will begin at 5:30 p.m.
