SUMMARY:New Work by Khaila Batts - Perception in Fragments: Unveiling Family through Color and Memory

By weaving together elements of the past and present\, this exhibition explores how marginalized communities\, particularly Black families\, experience and navigate the complexities of identity\, memory\, and systemic forces. My work within this exhibition\, including pieces like Brooklyn’s Paradise (2024) and an untitled piece\, draws on fragmented realities to critique and reflect on the forces that shape our lived experiences. Through these works\, I aim to invite viewers to reconsider their assumptions about space\, race\, and identity\, ultimately challenging preconceived notions around Blackness and its portrayal in the public sphere. Brooklyn’s Paradise critiques the New York subway system\, a space that is integral to urban life yet riddled with neglect and violence\, often masked by everyday mundanity. By juxtaposing distorted figures\, subway patrons\, and discarded materials within a surreal landscape\, this piece challenges viewers to confront the violence and alienation that pervade urban spaces\, calling attention to how these issues are often ignored or normalized in society. The untitled piece centers on the intersection of religion\, domestic labor\, and generational teachings\, offering a reflection on how these traditions\, passed down through the generations\, continue to influence Black identity today. Through a mix of archival imagery and color manipulation\, this work explores how faith\, labor\, and family teachings evolve in the context of modern life\, intertwining the past and present. In this way\, the untitled piece delves into how historical practices and teachings continue to shape contemporary Black experiences\, particularly within domestic and familial spheres.   \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				  Both works in this exhibition embody my artistic practice of reframing Black identity through color\, abstraction\, and inversion\, which serves to disrupt racialized perceptions and offer a more nuanced understanding of Blackness. By redefining skin tones and emotional color associations\, I challenge the viewer to move beyond fixed cultural narratives and engage with the radiant\, complex presence of Black identity. The exhibition as a whole invites reflection on how individual histories and societal systems intersect to create our understanding of identity\, space\, and memory. \nArtist Statement  \nI use visual storytelling to confront misunderstandings about my identity and community history\, dismantling entrenched perceptions through manipulated color\, layered materials\, and expressive form. Working primarily in oil paint and acetate\, I build scenes that feel both archival and futuristic—broad\, modernized brushstrokes sweep across transparent layers\, blending digital collage with painterly tactility. Skin tones are inverted or shifted into unnatural hues\, disrupting racialized expectations and inviting viewers to see Blackness not as fixed\, but as radiant\, fluid\, and otherworldly. My figures are suspended in dreamlike environments—gestural yet frozen—rendered in saturated palettes where serene blues veil violence and stark contrasts expose emotional weight. Their gazes pierce outward\, creating a participatory exchange that humanizes and implicates the viewer. Interactive elements\, such as smartphone-enabled color inversion\, deepen this engagement\, asking audiences to reconsider how perception is shaped by both technology and bias. Through abstraction\, symbolism\, and material play\, my work reclaims narrative space for Black bodies\, offering new ways of seeing and being.

SUMMARY:The Saline Fiddler's Philharmonic
DESCRIPTION:Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic\nAmerica’s premier youth fiddling show band from Saline\, Michigan\, astounds audiences every time the group takes the stage. The musicians\, all from Saline High School\, present an energetic and polished show that features a diverse range of music from American folk\, fiddle\, bluegrass\, jazz\, western swing\, and Celtic traditions.  Spirited vocals and Appalachian step dancing combine with the instrumentals to create an unforgettable live performance. \nSaline Fiddlers Philharmonic began in 1994 with a simple idea: introduce an alternative style of music education to public school students to maintain and expand their interest in music performance.  Since then\, the group has definitely set the standard for extracurricular music programs in the United States. It has grown into a model of instruction and motivation that is being emulated across the nation. \nThe widely acclaimed Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic’s history includes more than 1\,500 performances in the majority of the states in our nation.  The group has been honored to perform three times at the White House and twice on the Millennium Stage at the Kennedy Center\, as well as at a State of Michigan’s Presidential Inaugural Ball.  Annual summer tours have spanned the United States from the east coast to the west coast\, down south to up north\, and have also included performances in Canada and tours in Europe\, including visits to Saline’s sister cities of Brecon\, Wales and Lindenberg\, Germany.  Each year the group performs 50-60 times\, generally donating a third of their annual schedule to community service events. \nSaline Fiddlers Philharmonic has shared the stage with many top artists as well as other student groups. Especially gratifying is the number of student fiddle organizations which have been started around the country because of inspiration from the Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				“The Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic were outstanding.
