Notes: Addressing pop culture and racial conflicts, Nina Chanel Abney paints scenes rooted in autobiography, current events, and traditional storytelling. Abney’s paintings present new ways of approaching loaded topics and generating discussion, allowing viewers to come to their own conclusions.

Nina Chanel Abney's Baby translates a stylised figure into sharply defined geometric forms. A rectangular face, circular ears and bright red cheeks sit above an angular red outfit, while oversized hands add an expressive finishing touch. The combination of flat colour, simplified features and toy-like proportions gives the sculpture a distinctive graphic presence.

All works are supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Dovehouse Contemporary.
