Opening on November 10 in Hong Kong, LGDR & Wei is pleased to present Sweet Spot, an exhibition of seven new paintings by multidisciplinary artist Derrick Adams. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, and based in Brooklyn, New York, Adams employs techniques of collage, fragmentation, and synthesis of form to create representations of Black joy, leisure, and fantasy, expanding the conventional canon of cultural imagery that has described Black experience. Sweet Spotunveils new works from his latest series, Motion Picture Paintings, that pays homage to the Black figure and draws inspiration from Adams’s personal observations and imagination as well as Black films of the 1990s.

Sweet Spot is the artist’s first solo exhibition in Asia.

Gallery address: 2 Ice House Street, Central
