Jeff Sonhouse's upcoming exhibit at the Tilton Gallery is called 'Pawnography'; somewhat appropriately, it explores the changing role of the black male in society through mixed-media paintings and drawings.
Each portrait in Jeff Sonhouse's 'Pawnography' depicts a black male in drastically different settings. There is the black politician, the brand-obsessed individual, the pimp, and the paisley and platinum-obsessed young adult.
Jeff Sonhouse's 'Pawnography' will be displayed at the Tilton Gallery through December 23.
