Two artists, one undercurrent: the early pulse of recognition.
Shared origin (RCA), different registers, but the same sense of forward motion.
There are rumblings – sales, attention, the kind of interest that builds quietly. Their work is being noticed. Picked up, in some cases, by other artists – and that always says something – that they’ve see something – craft, truth, risk, resonance – that lands.
Imi paints like she’s translating memory through temperature. Canaan holds a conceptual thread that tightens as you look: a coherence that becomes more apparent over time. Structurally intentional – each element pulling inward toward an idea, with a bodily resonance, like a drawstring being pulled, quietly but with precision.
