Referencing everything from Erykah Badu to ancient Egyptian deities Jamea RichmondEdwards creates a brilliant multimedia panorama of Black historyDetroitbased artist Jamea RichmondEdwards born 1982 creates work in dialogue with Afrofuturism mythology history and Black fashion. Her vibrantly colored canvases take inspiration from the AfriCOBRA collective and are layered with collage and portraiture. This catalog follows her largest solo museum exhibition to date at the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami and features a monumental painting several largescale paintings and a newly commissioned film. Using glitter fabric and soft sculpture these paintings depict the artist and her family reimagined as Egyptian deities encountering dragons and paying homage to Indigenous leaders. The film Ancient Future uses a majorette performance superimposed against the cosmos activated by an experimental jazz soundtrack in collaboration with RichmondEdwards son. The catalog features a selection of stills from the film and a gatefold of the new monumental work.
