BLXCK RABBIT

Walk Through the Shadow, Fear No Evil

BLXCK RABBIT is the pseudonym for Celeste Lindsey, an artist from San Antonio, Texas. 

Using narrative, symbolism, metaphor, and abstraction, she creates both small-scale drawings and large-scale paintings that abandon the traditional stretched canvases and frames. Lindsey was an artist in residence in the 2023 Summer Session of the ON::View Artist Residency Program in Savannah, Georgia. Under BLXCK RABBIT, she has shown at the Tobin Center in the 2024 exhibition titled Blues on Blues through the San Antonio Ethnic Art Society (SAEAS). In 2023, Lindsey exhibited paintings in the Everybody Everybody exhibition at Clamp Light Artist Studios and Gallery.

Andrei Renteria

Fringes: Desaparecidx/ The disappeared  

Fringes is a series figure drawings, presented within a format meant to recall the pages of a notepad used at a crime scene by a detective/reporter. The text, written in a forensic manner, describes the kidnapping, brutal physical and/or sexual assault, endured by each fictitious victim portrayed. The use of lithography crayon to draw the image on a slick surface, aims to voice the state of suspension and vulnerability of the existing evidence for each case and the lack of state commitment to solving each crime. In an attempt at honoring the true victims of Mexico’s war on the narco, the figures are drawn at a life size scale, making it impossible for the viewer to ignore. More importantly it begs the viewer to question what individual responsibility they might hold when such strategies of obscuration are used to plant terror.
