Ezra Myers

A British-Caribbean artist working with folklore, ritual and the inherited codes of Afro-diasporic life.

Practice

Ezra Myers is a British-Caribbean artist based in London, working across drawing, collage and moving image. His practice explores Afro-diasporic folklore, Trinidadian Carnival, masks, ancestral presence and the inherited cultural codes carried through ritual, sound, performance and image.

The work is rooted in Afro-Caribbean folklore, in the codes carried through masquerade, music, movement and memory. Each image holds the figure as portrait, symbol and structure.
