The Migration Series marks a time between 1910 through 1970 when Black Americans moved from the Southern states to the Northern states of what was thought to be a better life. Emmanuel Gillespie utilizes elements of memory, history, and identity seeking in these exceptional works. The marriage of abstraction and figuration, with remnants of surrealistic gestures layered throughout provide compositions worth conversations. Each work in the Migration series enables the stories of the past to resurface through immaculate imagery and purposeful mark making.
