99% NO.14 2013

Editor: So, this is "99% NO.14" by Sedrick Huckaby. It's a small drawing, and what strikes me first is the sheer volume of hair. What draws your eye, and how do you interpret the overall feel of the piece? Curator: The hair definitely announces itself, doesn’t it? It's almost a halo, a crown of energy. To me, it speaks of identity, of claiming space. But look closer at the face – it's a face of quiet strength, wouldn't you agree? There's a dignity in that gaze. Editor: I see what you mean. It's like the drawing is composed of contrasts, boldness, and subtlety. Curator: Exactly! And that tension, that 99%, suggests an incompleteness, a story still unfolding. It's less about perfection and more about the journey. What do you take away from that? Editor: I guess I see the beauty in the unfinished, the potential for growth. Thanks.
