About The Artwork

This drawing is a part of my most recent body of work titled, "Cozy", which deals with the emotional damage to my subjects brought on by the ongoing pandemic, political upheavals, and resulting familial discord over how to perceive what has happened in the world over the past several years. So many people seem to be suffering from emotional wounds that haven't been given time to heal before they are beset by all new fears and anxieties. My intention is to create a dialogue with my audience based on shared memory & historical references to illustrate the ways in which individuals have learned to cope with this accelerated cycle of trauma to feel safe in their own skin.

Using playful yet sophisticated oil pastel drawings, Terrence creates archetypical portraits of various individuals that, when put together, represent different segments of communities and their relationships. He uses a visual language that is easy to understand, along with refined organic forms, patterns, text, and costumes to create a connection with his audience based on shared experiences. Terrence unifies his work using a single pattern to identify the overall theme of the community, allowing the figures, objects, and narratives to define the individuals within it. The humorous and empathetic allegories in his creations may leave more questions than answers, but they undoubtedly offer entertaining comforts for his audience.
