Sean G. Clark
Sean G. Clark is a Black Southern artist grounded in an artistic practice that surveys themes of health and African-American history. His practice involves a deeper consideration of a person's internal landscape and how we think, feel, and act due to the impacts of unresolved grief. At the center of his creative practice are abstract and figurative works that seek to capture internal narratives, specifically of Black lives, Black bodies, and Black family histories. Sean grounds his work initially in the abstract. He centers scale in his work, using size and detail to inform viewers of the enormity of impact that small things have. As he continues to develop his work, Sean aims to blur the line further between abstraction, quilting, and figurative works, while maintaining themes of the unseen, internal narratives of people in his community and family.
