Presa House Gallery presents the return of Houston-based artist Jaylen Pigford and his newest solo exhibition, "Apt. A104."
"Apt. A104" represents Pigford’s childhood home, where he grew from a young boy in 1st grade to a high school teenager, ultimately shaping him into the person he is today. He attempts to capture a period of time through 12 recent paintings of personal and family moments, deaths, stress, dreams, and his surroundings at Castle Manor Apartments in Flour Bluff, Corpus Christi, Texas.
Despite being a shy kid who lacked confidence, Pigford was comfortable with close friends, which would sometimes get them into trouble. Raised by a hardworking single mother with his older brother and sister, Pigford witnessed the ups and downs of life in A104. Despite the difficulties, he fondly reflects on his formative years through a loving and complex lens.
The exhibition will remain on view by appointment through August 19.
