Xavier Kelley

Join us for an exhibition featuring the remarkable work of Xavier Kelley.

Xavier Kelley is a Portland-based painter whose vivid narrative works explore the intersections of Black and Indigenous experiences through a distinctive lens that blends ancient cultural iconography with contemporary elements from sports, music, and academia.

Kelley's artistic vision is deeply rooted in Afrofuturism and graffiti art traditions, through which he crafts richly saturated compositions populated by idealized figures and meaningful glyphs. Through a combination of aesthetic elements and symbolic imagery – from pencils representing creative agency to animals embodying natural connection – Kelley creates immersive visual narratives that both acknowledge current social dynamics and imagine new possibilities for the future.
