Hungry #2

Multi-disciplinary artist Antoine Williams’ work explores cultural identity through the power, fear, and societal perceptions associated with being Black in America. Heavily influenced by science fiction and his upbringing in rural North Carolina, Williams creates his own mythologies that capture the complexities of contemporary Blackness. In his drawings of Black men in oversized clothing, figures carry an immense physical, psychological and emotional weight for the bare minimum of being seen as fully human.
