For the month of June, the Speck Gallery is exhibiting Summertime by Faith Blackwell, a vibrant celebration of summer delights featuring the playful imagery of watermelon and vanilla ice cream. This artwork aims to reclaim and honor these two iconic symbols, once used as derogatory caricatures of black people in American history. Through its poppy aesthetic, this collection invites viewers to embrace the season's joy and beauty while acknowledging and challenging the harmful stereotypes attached to these beloved treats.
