From Pencil on Paper Gallery:
“Explorations of Afro-futurism embark upon creative journeys that delve into the interconnected attributes of humanity and its environment in Abi Salami’s solo exhibition, From Behind the Vines. Navigating a world where the inevitability of climate change collides with the voracious appetite of capitalism, Salami takes viewers to a place that reminds us that nature and humanity are one in the same. With visions of a future that transcends the constraints of the present, offering a glimpse into a realm where Afro-futurism becomes a catalyst for resilience and transformation, From Behind the Vines is a visual narrative that examines the symbiotic relationship between humans and their surroundings. Throughout this exploration, the artists tell a story greater than herself, unlocking the secrets of her past and her culture, while offering respect and honor to her people.”
