On view 24/7 @artsy link in bio Ahmad George is a conceptual artist from Memphis, TN working with mixed media paintings to explore scenes about their personal recovery from physical trauma, dependence, and home (internal and external). Ahmad was the recipient of the 2020 Arts Excellerator Grant that allowed them to start “Free.99”, a project that put a magnifying glass on how they've cultivated consumerist coping mechanisms, how the generational habits of access and addiction have materialized in their life, and flipping the term “free” to represent the monetary but also the moral. To execute this their research spans informative psychological texts, American/world folk religious references, art historical works, marketing iconography, Christian alchemical manuscripts and Egyptian lore. • they/them Ahmad George was selected for the NADA Curated Spotlight, an inaugural special section curated by Ebony L. Haynes at NADA Miami 2021. Sunday Sales will mark Ahmad George’s first solo exhibition in New York. Sunday Sales will run through November 6th.
