John and June Allcott Gallery, 115 S. Columbia St., Chapel Hill, NC 27599

Program

Antoine Williams is an interdisciplinary artist who is heavily influenced by speculative fiction, critical Black studies and his working-class upbringing in Red Springs, North Carolina.  He works with the notion of society as monstrous to question themes of power and class within their social, cultural, and political absurdities. Artworks act as ledgers documenting societal infractions. His work sits at the intersection of speculative fiction, monster theory, surrealism, and critical race theory. The result is a process-based practice involving installation, painting, drawing, collage, assemblage, and sound. He uses materiality and concept to weave futures, archives, radical imagining into speculative economies that investigate the complexities of contemporary Black life.
