Good Mother Gallery LA proudly presents “A Scratch in the Paint,” uniting three distinguished Oakland artists – Landon Pointer, Esteban Samayoa, and Jahlil Nzinga – under one roof to showcase their unique perspectives on California life and culture. As representatives of California’s rich artistic heritage, Pointer, Samayoa, and Nzinga offer a multifaceted exploration of the state’s essence. Their works delve into themes of identity, place, and artistic evolution, reflecting the diverse tapestry of experiences that define life on the West Coast.
This exhibition also serves as a testament to the enduring sisterhood between LA and Oakland. Good Mother Gallery, a cornerstone of Oakland’s vibrant art community, brings together three artists who have shown and worked with Good Mother in Oakland for many years. With a shared history of cultural exchange spanning music, art, and beyond, these cities have long served as incubators for creativity and innovation. “A Scratch in the Paint” celebrates this legacy, inviting viewers to experience the deep connections between these two dynamic communities.
Good Mother Gallery LA invites you to join us in honoring the artistic legacy of California, as embodied by the works of Pointer, Samayoa, and Nzinga. Discover the shared spirit of LA and Oakland through this compelling showcase of West Coast talent.
