Pierce my arteries and watch my skin circumflex
Warp like a bow in the act of precision
Take until you cannot anymore
And contort the blame
This is no longer a response
No longer a response to the loss we have faced as a people
But steady strides to our collective peace
Tranquility granted by the green from our mother
Resistance spoken from the depths of brown
My skin isn’t seared it is graced
In partnership with your warmth
RSVP for the opening reception on Friday, January 17 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the link below:

Gagoh’s practice leads with a focus in photography, while spanning across music production, film, and printmaking. He has developed a signature visual and sonic language that captures the world around one with honesty and transparency. Gagoh exhibits photographic frames saturated by rich, opalescent colors, works that gaze back at the viewer, and compositions that state the obvious or encourage deeper investigation.
David Ese Gagoh’s body of work addresses the documentation of one’s life as an artistic practice, emphasizing the differences and points of relation in human experience. Themes of religion, ritual, and relationships loom throughout the work, embodying the act of living in stripped portraits, intricately structured still lives, and tranquil visions of this earth we inhabit.
