In the absence of color lies a profound visual language that transcends the decorative to reveal the essential. Black and white—a dialog between presence and absence, light and shadow—offers artists a distilled vocabulary where concept and form communicate with striking clarity.

The current exhibition at ArtX360, a co-working artists laboratory in Little Haiti, brings together diverse voices exploring this duality across multiple media.  Each artist is navigating a terrain where limitations become liberating. Working in black and white requires a heightened attention to structure, texture, and composition; it strips away the seductive distractions of color to expose the architecture of artistic thought. These works do not express deprivation but revelation: a return to the fundamental dialogue between mark and surface, shadow and light, presence and void—elements that form the foundation of visual communication.

These works invite viewers to experience the unexpected richness of reduction, and the eloquence of constraint.

Exhibiting Artists: Ivan Castillo, Barrett Goldstein, Raul Perdomo, Alette Simmons-Jiménez
