Short story by Lynette Yiadom-Boakye

This is the exhibition catalog for the exhibition of the same name at the Studio Museum Harlem, the artists first solo exhibition. Working in a luxuriously dark, muted palette offset by bursts of radiant color, Yiadom-Boakye paints subjects from her imagination, whose stories she sometimes elaborates through short fiction. Whether with a shy smile, leering, or evading one’s gaze, Yiadom-Boakye’s subjects consistently confront the viewer with a beguiling sense of intimacy and the implication of larger, hidden life.
