Tiona Nekkia McClodden considers the presence and absence of the
Black figure and aesthetic tropes of representation through work
traversing film, installation, sculpture, painting, and writing.
---------- “An artist who may be America’s most essential
today.” — Siddhartha Mitter, The New York Times ----------
Known for her poignant examinations of biomythography and identity,
McClodden uses a research-based approach in her practice as an
artist and self-described “historian and cultural custodian.”
MASK / CONCEAL / CARRY dissects the many meanings of “masking,”
“concealing,” “carrying,” and their opposites, revealing
the constant contradiction and harmony between these actions. In
this body of work, McClodden creates sculptural meditations on
guns—a gold and silver chainmail helmet and a leather molded
magazine of an AR15 assault rifle. Through custom lighting, the
artist carefully choreographs a performance between the work,
space, and viewer. Adding to McClodden’s narrative and
psychological concepts, this publication includes a curator’s
note from Ebony L. Haynes, a poem by the acclaimed writer and
artist Rhea Dillon, and a conversation between the poet Simone
White and the artist, as well as a statement penned by McClodden
herself.
