Among his timeless sculptures, Thomas Blackshear recognizes
periods in history that framed the thoughts and actions of our
nation today. A new portrait of President Obama recalls the
struggles of the 1960s, a time that set the stage for our first
African American president over 40 years later. Culturally, The
Bump gives us a peek at the ‘70s disco dance scene, and today’s
music speaks through a young aspiring hip hopper. But it’s the
ethereal angel alighting onto an ancient column that brings us
into the ever present realm of spirituality. Thomas creates a time
capsule of hand-painted realistic figures for enjoyment anytime.
