Paul Branton: LATCHKEY KID: AN INTERNAL PERSPECTIVE
@ Epiphany Center for the Arts
201 S Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Friday, January 17th, from 6PM - 9PM
On view through Friday, March 7th
The South Side of Chicago is a precarious environment to navigate. This was true in the 70’s and remains true today. For those kids that were left alone to explore the South Side neighborhoods, this body of work speaks directly to them. The adult world colliding with adolescent minds; the conversations, sights, sounds and smells that shaped lives and influenced decisions. Branton attacks both canvas and paper to explore these memories and feelings. Comedians deal with trauma through laughter, while Paul Branton tackles these internal demons with vivid colors, unwavering truth and bits of humor. These drawings and paintings create a dialogue for healing.
