REYES PROJECTS PRESENTS LAKELA BROWN: MATERIAL RELIEF Opening Reception:  June 23, 6-8pm June 23 - August 10, 2018 100 South Old Woodward Ave, Birmingham, MI LaKela Brown,  Doorknocker Earrings Arrangement Relief,  2018, Plaster, 51 x 41 cm Detroit, MI –  Reyes Projects  is pleased to announce a solo exhibition by Brooklyn-based artist and Detroit native,  LaKela Brown . The exhibition opens  on Saturday ,  June 23 ,  2018  from  6-8pm.  Echoing the aesthetics of ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman artifacts, Brown presents her largest works in her series of plaster reliefs. These sculptures aim to preserve artifacts of the 1990s hip-hop era frequently attributed to African-American culture. The works in the show act as a sartorial diary from Brown’s personal archives. The status symbols of her childhood—door-knocker earrings, rope chain necklaces, and gold-capped teeth—function here as semi-abstractions that are both playful and meditative.
