Tiona Nekkia McClodden delves into the intricate interplay of presence and absence, exploring the Black figure and aesthetic tropes of representation across a diverse range of artistic mediums. Her work encompasses film, installation, sculpture, painting, and writing, showcasing her as a pivotal artist in contemporary America.
McClodden's artistic practice is characterized by a research-based approach, positioning her as both an artist and a self-described "historian and cultural custodian." Her thought-provoking artwork, MASK / CONCEAL / CARRY, delves into the multifaceted meanings of "masking," "concealing," and "carrying," unveiling the constant contradiction and harmony between these actions. Through her sculptural creations, McClodden examines the concept of guns, specifically focusing on a gold and silver chainmail helmet and a leather molded magazine of an AR15 assault rifle. By meticulously orchestrating custom lighting, she choreographs a captivating performance that blurs the boundaries between the work, the space, and the viewer.
This publication further enhances McClodden's narrative and psychological concepts, featuring a curators note by Ebony L. Haynes, a poem by acclaimed writer and artist Rhea Dillon, and a captivating conversation between poet Simone White and the artist. Additionally, McClodden herself contributes a powerful statement that sheds light on her artistic vision and approach.
Tiona Nekkia McClodden's profound exploration of identity, representation, and the human experience through her diverse artistic mediums establishes her as a truly essential artist of our time. Her work continues to inspire and challenge audiences, contributing to the ongoing dialogue about art and society.
