Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area. Today, Emily chats with Troy Lamarr Chew II, a talented painter with an ongoing exhibition at San Francisco's Altman Siegel gallery. Troy pursued his passion for art, eventually studying at the California College of the Arts and receiving a prestigious residency at the Headlands Center for the Arts. His recent work explores invisibility,  inspired by his time as an Uber driver. His work can be seen in notable museums and galleries. Troy  discusses his artistic journey, influences, and unique approach to language and representation in his art.About Artist Troy Lamarr Chew II :Troy Lamarr Chew II explores the legacy of the African Diaspora and its reverberations throughout American culture. His work looks methodically at systems of coded communication and how this is translated and mistranslated both within the Diaspora and the mainstream.Chew's rich artistic visual language draws inspiration largely from Black culture and its history. A highly skilled realist, inspired by European painting techniques, Chew uses these art historical traditions to reframe their exclusion of Blackness. In his Out the Mud series, hand dyed and sewn cloths from West Africa are replicated in a trompe l'oeil fashion, their patterns “torn” away to reveal portrayals of contemporary Black culture and resistance. In another series, Slanguage, the artist paints Flemish style vanitas picturing everyday objects, coded in hip-hop lexicon. His Three Crowns series explores the social history of cosmetic dentistry and the use of grills in hip-hop culture. The artist's lush and luminous oil paintings embody the energy of this infinitely re-mixed yet deeply rooted genre.In 2020, Chew was awarded the prestigious Tournesol Residency at Headlands Center for the Arts after becoming a Graduate Fellow from California College of the Arts, San Francisco in 2018. Solo exhibitions include The Roof is on Fire, Altman Siegel, San Francisco, CA (2022), Yadadamean, CULT Aimee Friberg Exhibitions, San Francisco, CA (2020); Fuck the King's Horses and all the King's Men, Parker Gallery, Los Angeles, CA (2020); WWJZD, Cushion Works, San Francisco, CA (2019) and Stunt 101, Guerrero Gallery, San Francisco, CA (2019).

Muzae Sesay is an artist born in Long Beach, California who is based out of Oakland, California. His artistic focus derives from a lifelong commitment to understanding our collective relationship to space, memory, community, and the perceived truths within them. From that foundation, his artistic practice has thematically revolved around the merging of these relationships to form paintings that provoke social reasoning and induce the viewer’s agency in the navigation and narration of imagery. Current work connects with the feelings that arise from testing the absoluteness of the strict and rigid aspects of physics and realism found in architecture, design, and our built environment. Utilizing skewed perspectives of space and shape collapsed into flat two-dimensional planes, he creates surreal geometric interiors, exteriors, landscapes, and structures—presenting a situation in which to be experienced and explored. Inspired by ideas of cultural reflection and developed by questioning the validity of remembrance, his work often depicts worlds created in response to a social introspection and a continual challenge of perceived reality. This process involves taking imagery from the physical world and reducing them to rudimental forms that then populate fragmented universes compiled by perspectival fallacies and tied together by harmonious color composition. The viewer is compelled to understand the space, question its dimensionality, dive inside and walk around. Muzae has had shows at Pt. 2 Gallery in Oakland, I.M.A. in San Francisco, Guerrero Gallery in San Francisco, Pt. 2 Gallery in LA, SFMOMA, Fisk Gallery in Portland, V1 Gallery in Copenhagen, Spaceship in New York amongst many others. His work has been covered in Juxtapoz, ArtMaze, Vice, Create! Magazine, and SF Weekly just to name a few. Sound and Vision is supported by the New York Studio School. The legendary New York Studio School Marathons are immersive courses that emphasize experiential learning and expand the boundaries of what drawing, painting, and sculpture can be. Fall 2020 Virtual Intersession Marathons take place November 5th – 9th.  Artists from anywhere in the world are invited to participate in a five-day Virtual Marathons. Each course is designed to expand upon essential themes and working methodologies in art-making. Apply online today at nyss.org and follow us on Instagram @ny_studioschool.”
