Hence being tapped for relevant pop culture dealings within the Black art diaspora. He recently aligned with Kendrick Lamar for the Nobel Prize winner’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers festival runs at Primavera and Lollapalooza, where Taylor produced engulfing fabric backdrops for the Compton native’s stage design.

Now, Taylor embarks on another landmark in his anointed career: a major exhibition titled From Sugar to Shit in Paris at Hauser & Wirth. Complete with 30 works that weave a masterful tale of life, normalcy, and how that union stews moments of artistic brilliance, the exhibition is on view until January 7th, 2024.
