Award winning artist Jonathan D. Pinkett is one of the featured artists who hails from South Philly and is widely known for his portraits using oils, charcoal, and watercolors. “A portrait can provide a communal understanding of a people, it is a form of authenticity that offers perspectives on the true identity. My work is an effort to deconstruct the diverse world around me. I use a variety of materials and processes in each project that relate to specific themes or personalities. Because I absorb and redirect the energy of my subjects the portraits that I create are, in essence, self portraits. My mission is to make the invisible visible through portraiture. I seek to immerse myself in the conditions around me, not to escape them. My influences are Charles White, Roberto Lugo, Jacob Collins, Jordan Sokol Kurt Schwitters and Alexander Rodchenko. My works are in Public, Private and Corporate collections worldwide.” Jonathan states.
“The opportunity to partner with Pyramid Club came at just the right time. Lemuria Gallery has been working personally with artists to assist in establishing their artwork for over 35 years. We as artists ourselves, understand the complicated road to achieve the direct connection between artists and clients. Members of the public that are interested in the arts, want a connection and conversation directly with the artists that resonate with them creatively. Well, this venue provides that connection,” adds Pat Pinkett, docent of the Barnes Foundation
