IN THE SHADOWS” 2023
Malik Roberts, born in 1990 in Brooklyn, New York, is a trailblazing contemporary artist whose visionary paintings breathe new life into the age-old Cubist tradition. The Brooklyn-based artist's work embodies a sophisticated fusion of fine art and multimedia, transcending conventional figuration to reveal a multi-dimensional tapestry of black culture and human nature. Through his innovative Cubo-Prismism style, Roberts' rhizomatic compositions weave geometric elements, capturing cinematic crescendos reminiscent of the High Renaissance. His use of rich melanated palettes, bold hues, and compelling chiaroscuro evokes a range of emotions and themes. Rooted in the metaphysical teachings of the Five Percenter Nation and influenced by cinema and American cultural life, his art illuminates the complexity of identity and the resilience of the human spirit. Through his canvas, Roberts challenges perceptions and invites audiences to embrace an unapologetic and profound “way of seeing” the Other.
