Rhythms and Roots - Art Print
Rhythms and Roots by Simone Anthony-Brown is a striking mixed media collage that explores themes of identity, heritage, and resilience. Featured in the 2025 Newark Liberty International Airport Terminal A - Digital Artist Selection, this piece blends intricate layers of recycled paintings, printed text, and textured materials to create a visually compelling narrative.
At the center of Rhythms and Roots is a powerful black and white imagery, its gaze both introspective and defiant. The subject’s hair, composed of dynamic, organic fragments of color, evokes movement and growth, symbolizing a deep connection to cultural and ancestral roots. Surrounding the figure, swirling elements and lush green foliage merge abstraction with realism, representing both the rhythmic flow of history and the grounding force of nature.
Throughout the composition, embedded text subtly emerges from the layers, reinforcing themes of advocacy and empowerment. The fusion of materials and textures speaks to the richness of the Black experience, celebrating strength, beauty, and the interconnectedness of past and present.
By combining traditional collage techniques with a contemporary artistic vision, Rhythms and Roots serves as a bold statement on visibility, identity, and the enduring power of cultural legacy.
