Change (J. Cole), 2022
wood, lacquer, wall paint
269.2 x 355.6 cm 106 x 140 inches"I had all these blue backgrounds and I would make these
black gestures until it felt right. I was thinking about these
cave markings in different parts of the world, in Australia
or Indonesia, that have endured for 40,000 years. These people left a mark on their society for us today to find and say, "Oh they did exist." Which is something I wanted to join into our own society."Tariku Shiferaw, interviewed by Katie White, artnet, ‘Joy Can Be an Act of Resistance’: Rising-Star Artist Tariku Shiferaw on the Provocatively Happy Ideas Behind His Abstractions, 2021.
