Across more than a dozen new sculptures incorporating found objects like bullet shells, dirt, and wood, the New York sculptor tackles issues such as mass incarceration, the drug epidemic, and flaws in the judicial and medical systems within the African diaspora, drawing from his upbringing in Washington D.C. and historical events like the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. In addition to the show, Massillon will present a public performance called “Imprints of Connection” during Atlanta Art Week. This performance involves a collaboration with local dirt bike group atlbikelife to create a semi-permanent earth artwork inspired by African fractals and UFO crop circle conspiracies.
