Nahem in the Leaves
Seen but Not Seen
"Covid Odyssey is a series of coloured pencil paintings that explore the mythic stories around the Cover 19 pandemic: the metaphor of entering the dark forest into the unknown and our future destiny. Black lives Matter, Climate Change, Covid 19 and polluting our fragile planet with our waste all feed into the narrative of these works. We are all on a journey due to the pandemic, that has brought out all the injustices in our society, which have been seen but not seen. My characters in these paintings including myself are wearing the rainbow symbol of diversity, and are partly being hidden by the leaves preventing them from being seen, which reflects how society has kept certain people invisible. My work has always been about shining light on what deserves to be seen, but due to racism and class have been kept hidden.," Nahem Shoa

Nahem Shoa exhibitions

BLACK PRESENCE, Saturday 21 September 2019 until Saturday 23 November 2019, BLACK PRESENCE, curated by artist Nahem Shoa chose a large selection of his striking oil paintings of black sitters. They were shown alongside key portraits by a wide range of British artists from the 18th century to the present day.
"Nahem Shoa is especially keen to increase the number of positive images of black people in British art collections and has donated many of his own works to this effect. This exhibition includes, among others, work by Joshua Reynolds, Desmond Haughton and Sonia Boyce, as well as Allan Ramsay’s outstanding ‘Portrait of an African (probably Ignatius Sancho)’. Some of the paintings in the exhibition are from The Atkinson’ collection and the contrast with Nahem’s work is immediately obvious. Historic images including those from The Atkinson’s collection tend to be negative and based on a limited number of stereotypes" – Stephen Whittle, Principal Manager, The Atkinson Multiculturalism is now acknowledged as a fact of life in 21st century Britain. Shoa’s paintings of his friends are a unique contribution to celebrate this mix of race. An illustrated catalogue of the exhibition will be available to purchase.
