Silver Eye

Save the Date! Join Ajamu X, Rainbow Serpent, and participants of FIERCE: Pittsburgh for a special night of celebration and community.

Presented in collaboration with Rainbow Serpent, FIERCE: Pittsburgh honors the city’s Black queer culture as part of a growing global archive. The individuals celebrated in this exhibition are shaping Pittsburgh’s story through their contributions to the creative arts and education, civic and political life, and health activism.

Ajamu X is a darkroom and fine art photographic artist. His philosophical provocations and aesthetics celebrate Black queer bodies, the erotic senses, pleasure, and the sensual–material attributes of image production. FIERCE: Pittsburgh at Silver Eye is the artist’s first solo exhibition in the United States.
