Opening Reception for “Under the Influence”, Curated by Ginger Rudolph

March 7 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Please join us for the opening of a 2-person exhibition, featuring the work of Eustace Mamba and Alain Jean-Baptiste.

Paradigm Gallery + Studio is pleased to present Under the Influence, a two-person exhibition curated by writer and curator Ginger Rudolph. Rudolph believes that art has the power to document, process, and transform personal experiences, which she illustrates through the work of fine artist Eustace Mamba and painter Alain Jean-Baptiste. Rudolph encourages these artists to explore deeply personal forces–family memories, environmental traumas, career triumphs– that have shaped their creative paths to fashion a narrative championing cultural heritage, identity, and self-discovery.

Eustace Mamba approaches his work as a cross-section of history, sociology, and psychology interwoven into eclectic collaged portraits, cityscapes, and reconstructed ephemera. His multidisciplinary background in photography, graphic design, and painting gives him the confidence to experiment with different materials and processes to assemble an expansive configuration of contemporary Black life.

Alain Jean-Baptiste dives deep into his memory, happily growing up in Haiti until everything changed when a 7.0 magnitude earthquake destroyed his family’s home and immobilized the country’s economic growth.
