‘The Lessons I Leave You: Paintings by Ayana Ross’
The Muskegon Museum of Art will host this exhibit through September 10.
Ayana Ross collects stories. She draws from family, current events, history, art, her experiences growing up in the American South, and Biblical stories viewed through a contemporary lens.
Touching on universal themes, Ross’ paintings offer an opening for viewers to find themselves and their own experiences.
A recurring theme in Ross’ art is that of parent and child, of memories of the past and wishes and advice for the future.
Ayana Ross is based in McDonough, Georgia, and maintains a studio in nearby Atlanta.
She was the recipient of the 2021 Bennett Prize, an award that included a $50,000 grant and a solo exhibition.
“The Lessons I Leave You” premieres a selection of the paintings created by Ross during her two-year grant period.
