About the Item
"Joy Abstracted" is a one-of-a-kind piece created from Eustace Mamba, as part of his ongoing series of sewn mixed media portraits. This wall-hanging collage is made from sewing and braiding painted canvas, paper and other found materials. This piece measures 12"h x 12"w and ships with a gallery-issued Certificate of Authenticity.
Eustace Mamba (b. 1992, NYC, USA) is an artist and designer whose interdisciplinary practice spans painting, collage, street photography, and mixed-media design. Rooted in his West Indian heritage and Manhattan upbringing, his work explores identity, community, and the fluidity of American life. Drawing from illustration, he constructs narratives that blend observation with invention, portraying both personal and collective experiences. Through repurposed materials and sewn elements, he challenges Western image norms while threading together themes of resilience and transformation.
Mamba holds an MFA and BFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. His work has been exhibited widely and is included in the collections of the Woodmere Art Museum, the Petrucci Family Foundation Collection of African American Art, and the Museum at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
"Black Subjectivity and Afro-Pessimism continue to influence my art as I strive to deviate from colonial image norms. Threads connect the images, symbolizing unity and societal forces. Like a scientist, I engage in an ongoing dialogue of discovery, to uncover new dimensions within myself.” -Eustace Mamba
