Our newest resident artists, Martha Wade (Martha A. Wade) and Reisha Williams (Reisha), have known each other since 2011. A friendship built on a natural artistic bond that started with, of all things, a fan. Their story reminds us of the value of creative communities and the collaboration that they breed.

Welcome to Zhou B, Martha and Reisha!

“Everything eventually finds its way back to the source of it all.” Rooted Frequency by Blake D. Lenoir comments on the relationship of love and nature today.

Within “The Threads Of Us” is the work of Chicago artist Barrett Keithley whose work draws from Afrofuturism, street art, and ancestral memory. Barrett’s art is rooted in a mission of service: to show people their beauty, and in doing so, awaken their brilliance.

This piece and the rest of “The Threads Of Us”, curated by Blake D. Lenoir, is on view through September 13th at Zhou B Art Center.

Artist Jamele Wright Sr. (Jamele Wright) creates paintings that are as much constructed as they are painted. Each work begins long before the brush touches the surface. He sews, dyes, stains, and builds his canvases by hand, creating richly layered compositions where every material plays a role in the story.

Jamele considers how each piece will resonate emotionally, invite reflection, and connect with the viewer beyond what is seen.

Experience Jamele Wright Sr.’s work in What the Eye Beholds, on view through September 11th at Zhou B Art Center.

The ZHOU BROTHERS collaborative process is truly one of a kind! People’s curiosity about how they co-create in unison created a desire to see them create paintings and sculptures in front of audiences around the world.

“What the Eye Beholds” expands our perception of what art can be. Moving beyond traditional canvas, the featured artists transform unexpected materials into powerful works rich with texture, depth, and meaning.

Through fabric, metal, found objects, and layered surfaces, they invite viewers to experience stories that are not only seen, but felt.

What The Eye Beholds is on view at Zhou B Art Center through September 11th.
