Chase Hall's Halfrican exhibition at David Kordansky features grand works that utilize coffee-based pigments, highlighting personal and generational narratives related to identity.
The series of paintings raise complex questions about identity formation which are not as clear-cut as they might seem, prompting reflection on systemic oppression.
Hall's large-scale painting, The Future and the Past (God is Us), presents a panoramic view of diverse individuals, using patterning to convey unity and shared experience.
The exhibition critiques how systemic forces influence identity and territory, ultimately showcasing the balance between self-determination and community support in shaping human narratives.
