Joel Parsons, “I saw you dancing and I loved you (Pull Up to the Bumper Baby),” 2024

Description

Sheet Cake is proud to present a solo exhibition of Joel Parsons for NADA Miami. Dance, roses, and tears are used across his work, evoking celebration, longing, protest, performance, and humor. These pieces exist within a space Parsons calls a speculative dance club for “we who feel otherwise” in a world on fire. The dance floor becomes a place to experience freedom and joy, and cast protection over friends and loved ones. The work collectively features his technically precise drawing style, artist-made frames, bursts of hot color, and lumpy and abstracted bodies intertwining and coming apart.
