rhea dillon sculpture new talent

Rhea Dillon, a 29-year-old artist and writer, is preparing for three exhibitions opening over the summer: a group show at the Whitney Independent Study Program (ISP), a solo exhibition at Heidelberger Kunstverein, and a booth in the Statements section of Art Basel Switzerland. Her work, which draws on Black and Caribbean intellectual traditions, uses everyday objects and symbols to critique postcolonial diasporic identity, as seen in sculptures like *Caribbean Ossuary* (2022) and *Swollen, Whole, Broken...* (2023). Dillon also discusses her linguistic approach, explored in drawings at Paul Soto Gallery, where she repeats and redefines the shape of a spade to transform a racial slur into new forms.

"The Great Camouflage" Rockbund Museum of Art / Shanghai

"The Great Camouflage" at the Rockbund Museum of Art (RAM) in Shanghai, curated by X Zhu-Nowell and Kandis Williams, is a multilevel exhibition that responds to global political and social exhaustion. Anchored in Black feminist thought and taking Suzanne Césaire's writings as a starting point, the show revisits revolutionary attitudes and builds new networks of solidarity across Asia, Africa, and Latin America, deliberately decentering Euro-American narratives. It features works by artists including Christine Tien Wang, Hao Jingban, and Wang Tuo, and highlights figures such as Amy Ashwood Garvey, Eslanda Robeson, Shirley Graham Du Bois, and Grace Lee Boggs.
