Buried the Roots for Now, a solo show of works by artist Jasmine Best, runs September 13 - October 5th at Tiger Strikes Asteroid - Greenville gallery located in Hampton Station, Greenville, SC. The artist reception will be September 21 from 6-9pm. Buried the Roots for Now explores the connections between the past and present, emphasizing how historical forms of resistance and survival can provide tools for addressing contemporary challenges. The exhibition draws from the folklore and rich histories of African Americans in the South, embracing the narrative power of quilts, brooms, and banjos through time. Best offers a perspective on what it means to be a Southern artist, using the excavation of the past to guide us in the present.
