Anthony Titus

Ruptures and Reconciliations

July 17–October 24, 2021

 Anthony Titus is an artist, architect, and educator whose work exemplifies ’T’ Space’s mission to synthesize the arts across disciplines. Titus’ works originate from poetry excerpts from Richard Wright’s Haiku which are transposed into fluid monochromatic compositions that create a dance between light, space, and color. Anthony Titus describes the process of making the works as “a cycle of making, unmaking, and remaking” that closely mirrors how “the current social fabric seems to be coming apart in ways that are unprecedented.” Being one of the most influential African- American writers, Wright’s works is a fitting vantage point to contemplate on the societal tensions of the moment.
