Artist: Clarence Heyward | Location: Clayton, NC
Clayton, NC
Clarence Heyward is a painter and collagist. His work investigates cultural truths, challenges stereotypes and questions identity. Clarence believes it’s important to “paint his truth” and uses people of color as subjects in his work as homage to his culture. His work is a visual narrative of faces and figures who are often dismissed in society and in the realm of fine art. Much of his work is inspired by the many facets of African American culture. It is a combination of portraiture, graphic design, and “soul”. He often embeds text into his work creating a direct dialogue between the work and the viewer.
