Tenacity

“Tenacity” is an ode to those who passed away within one group of friends: Jabari Benton, Jonathan Sandoval-Aleman, Millard Frazier Jr., and Olivia Lee. A contemplation on what it is to be held by your community of friends and family. A reminder that grief isn’t held by any one individual.

About Artist

Jamil Baldwin

Jamil G Baldwin was raised in and has worked across the Inland Empire and Los Angeles. Baldwin’s work is an inquiry into the limits of the ability of the photograph to function as a force of liberation. The work asks audiences to practice gestures of reorientation, as a means of cultivating a constellation of practices that construct a value system. His images have been exhibited at the Sculpture Center, PioneerWorks, Webber Gallery, Belfast Photo Festival, Lagos Photo Festival, and included in the following publications: Cultured Mag, Aperture, New York Times, Matte Editions, JRNL, and Callaloo.
