Malik Roberts, SKY IS THE LIMIT

September 5, 2022 to September 4, 2023
Marconi Park, Queens

Please note: This is a past exhibit that is no longer installed in the park.

Description:

Malik Roberts is a painter and an adroit practitioner of multimedia arts annexing the image plane and the conventions of figuration for an explicit endeavor in distilling, with the force and clarity of revelation, an essence of fibrous multiplicity that characterizes the being and becoming of black culture, as well as the virtualities and dregs of human nature.

This mural consists of two silhouettes, layered with colors, over two different sky backgrounds. It showcases the beauty and diversity of Queens while inspiring anyone who plays on the court to see a part of themselves in the work. Court participants can play within the sky, a platform to reach the beyond.
