Better Blues | A Solo Exhibition by Indigo
"Better Blues" takes its inspiration from Spike Lee's "Mo' Better Blues" - the film that gifted me my name. Like the jazz that flows through that film, this exhibition weaves through the rhythms and hues of childhood, finding harmony in the spaces between challenge and joy.
Exhibition Overview
In this deeply personal collection, artist Indigo explores the vibrant moments that punctuated their childhood. Through ink works, the exhibition challenges the conventional narrative that children of divorce only inherit trauma. Instead, these pieces celebrate the unexpected beauty that can bloom in the spaces between two homes, two lives, and two loves.
Artist Statement
Growing up between two households could have painted my world in shadows, but instead, it taught me to find light in unexpected places. "Better Blues" isn't about avoiding the darker notes - it's about finding the melody within them. Each piece in this collection represents a moment where joy broke through, where love found its way, where childhood magic persisted despite adult complexities.
