Trokon Nagbe
Trokon Nagbe is a Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist and former BRIC Visual Artist in Residence who was born in Liberia, West Africa. Marrying performance and sculpture together, his large-scale works on paper and plastic are ripped, burned, and chewed to the point where the resulting object expresses both the destructive energy as well as fragile state of one’s body and soul. His installation in the Project Room will include sculpture, sound, and video. Trokon Nagbe's work was featured in several exhibitions at key galleries and museums, including the Henry Street Settlement / Abrons Arts Center. Trokon Nagbe has been featured in articles for the ArtDaily and the "ArtDaily". The most recent article is Exhibition at Skoto Gallery Brings Together the Works of Thirteen Artists written for the ArtDaily in November 2020.
