Located in a space by a small tidal strait called the “Buttermilk Channel”, is a solo exhibition by artist Derrick Adams at Pioneer Works, which ran from June 10 to July 17. The essence of Adams’ solo exhibition captures the black stereotypes being portrayed in the media and beyond. In one of the exhibition spaces at the venue, there are nine lamp sculptures with braided wigs over them, which shows the dramatization of black culture in our society and how it is portrayed in the media through those nine hairstyles. Additionally, there are other pieces that contribute to the message about what is happening with all these black stereotypes in popular culture, including the color bar images present. By pointing them out, Adams’ aims to garner more appreciation of black culture, not just what the stereotypes present. His message and purpose for this exhibit was strong and clear. The entire exhibit was successful in doing so, as it not only utilized just one form of media, but multiple ones to captivate visitors and reveal what is still happening in society today. In addition, throughout the entire exhibit, the number nine was prevalent as well, which alluded to the color bar image. There was also a collage of video stills of Miss Cleo from a psychic pay-per-call in a dim space that existed between 1997 and 2003, with her psychic hotline. Within the same space, there are multiple yoga mats with pillows for visitors to allow themselves to be captivated in the midst of Miss Cleo.
