Jamaal Peterman

Jamaal Peterman’s complex, cryptographic work reproduces the world as a kind of simulation that is accessed through the portal of each painting. Peterman was raised in South Florida before moving to Maryland, and later to New York, where he currently lives. White Roads on Black Soil hones in on each location, intervening and extrapolating upon the nature of how these city spaces are made and dismantled, by activating their own inherent abstractions.
