Jason’s work thrives on variety and incongruence, emerging from the creative void that he calls home. He reimagines urbane “Blackness”—often reduced to violence and sex—as a daily ballet of brilliance and survival. Through contrasting subjects and materials, Jason challenges paradigms, finding beauty in the grotesque, power in peace, and grandeur in the minute.

Jason’s art reflects the surreal contrasts of his environment, from skyscrapers masking decay to the opulence and devastation of the crack era. Inspired by Pollock, Dali, and hip-hop culture, he developed a style that fuses abstract expression with urban storytelling, using raw honesty to explore unspoken truths.

For this event, Jason presents “In Your Life” (“The Father”), a painting inspired by D’Angelo’s Devil’s Pie. Through vivid colors and Adinkra symbols, the piece humanizes the moral ambiguity of the drug trade, inviting viewers to confront their own judgments.
