Artist Feature: Kahlil Robert Irving

Kahlil Robert Irving’s work draws attention to the social histories embedded in our environment—and in the clay he has been working with since the age of 12. Based in St. Louis, which has some of the richest clay deposits in the U.S., along with a history of brick-making, Irving sees in each brick the labor by Black Americans to mine the material that built houses and wealth for white people. Inspired by ancient Antioch mosaics from the 3rd century A.D., which depict both myths and contemporary narratives of daily life, Irving likewise considers his own surroundings through his work—and the stories of race and class reflected in everyday objects.
