Coconut, humor, brown sugar, "bling", moving images, cinnamon, and sound effects are just some of the materials used in PepperPot -- an exciting exhibition featuring work by four outstanding young artists: Andrea Chung, Lauren Kelley, Morolake Odeleye and Cosmo Whyte. All four artists are engaged in a practice of making art that places materials -- the medium -- at the center of meaning in their work. Working in a variety of disciplines, the artists in PepperPot address issues of power, identity, memory and personal history from within the context of the African diaspora.
Curated by Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum (UNC-CH ’04) PepperPot will feature multi media work ranging from painting and photography to installation, experimental animation and sculpture.
