Artist's Statement
Artist Deb Leal unfurls a psychological journey of love lost & idolatry in her 2019 music video, “Sugar” by James Wavey featuring Keri Shewmaker. The song poses as a confession of obsessive infatuation, while viewers witness rituals performed as an attempt to breathe life back into the ghost of a past relationship.

Wavey’s 4th album, “Roses”, cradles lyrical vignettes as it travels through decades of musical influences covering humankind’s favorite topic: Love. Staying true to the album’s DNA, Leal pays homage to Carrie Mae Weems’, “The Kitchen Table Series”; a body of work discussing the contracts of social dynamics, while also carving out space for women to hold conversations within the Fine Art world. Weems was the first Black woman to have a solo retrospective at the Guggenheim, which opened in 2014.

Presented are production stills taken on analog film.
