Spiraling into the eternity of the present moment with Kandis Williams looks something like this: dense repetitions of hands, faces, teeth, and other assorted body parts, like a broken mirror in which one finds clarity from the reflection of societal ills; visually fragmented representations of race, femininity, violence, and identity, fracturing off one another and spiraling into perpetuity; and disquieting shadows, her oft-restrained color palette reading like a live Rorschach Test penetrating your psychology with the answer rather than the question: what do you see when you see me. Williams' collection of work is this and more — an otherworldly imprint of cosmic complexity grounded in the contemporary moment by its intellectual rigor and singularity.
