‘I’M really inspired and moved by a handful of artists making beautiful bold work, capturing their identities, their chosen families. D’Angelo Williams, Adama Jalloh, Clifford Prince King.”
The subject of a new exhibition of work entitled Soon Come at the Dundee Contemporary Arts centre, I’m asking artist Matthew Arthur Williams about the individuals who drive him on.
“There are also artists who are juggling multiple themes in their work, who look at a narrative and say ‘I’ll raise you’ by moving it outside of the standard framework”, he says. “Eija-Liisa Ahtila, Babette Mangolte, Rehana Zaman, and Ingrid Pollard do all of that so well.”
