Lehmann Maupin returns to FOG Design+Art with a presentation of new works by Robin Rhode, Teresita Fernández, and Arcmanoro Niles. Spanning a variety of interdisciplinary media including drawing, photography, and painting, these works contend with the relationship between place and identity.
In conjunction with his exhibition African Dream Root in New York, Robin Rhode’s Taraxacum (2022) takes inspiration from the artist’s extensive research into botany, as well as the visual and oral traditions of his native South Africa. Taraxacum (the taxonomic name for dandelion), depicts a flower against a blue wall while a silhouetted figure interacts with the painting in the foreground. The geometric pattern alludes to South African traditions of ancient rock art and entoptic phenomena, which refers to subjective visual effects created within the eye when psychoactive botanicals have been consumed during shamanistic healing rituals. In posing the wall as a portal between the spiritual and physical realms, Rhode builds a bridge between contemporary life and ancient South African traditions.
