Auudi Dorsey: Self Esteem and 2D Surrealism

Artist Auudi Dorsey's recent exhibition, 'What's Left, Never Left,' at the Jonathan Carver Moore gallery in San Francisco, focuses on Black leisure and collective joy through paintings of Lincoln Beach in New Orleans. The works, which depict Black families and community members, use a surrealist visual vernacular to archive and celebrate Southern Black experiences and the building of self-esteem.
