Artist Registry

The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

Redlining Hawks (an animated memory) - Password: stopframe

Redlining Hawks is a stop animation video that Bellamy hand-painted with oil on glass that incorporates recorded audio conversations between the artist, her aunt, and her father. A hawk, poppies, forget-me-nots, and Compton Cowboys are animated in paint and collaged over video footage capturing the city's built environment, paying particular attention to the shifting light that marks observational changes in ecology. Bellamy’s father is Afro-Cuban and immigrated to Los Angeles from Havana, Cuba in 1969 and settled in Inglewood at 112th and Lemoli Ave in 1971 where at first they were 1 of 3 Black families on the street. The conversational clippings project her family’s response to questions about how their immediate neighborhood has changed since the late 60s early 70s– presenting a collective story/ history told through memory and the natural environment. In response, Bellamy’s Aunt recalls the disappearance of a bright and grassy field near their home, where they practiced urban falconry.
