The artist's debut solo show, The Color of Everything, expands on the signature style Alteronce Gumby has cultivated, featuring studies of glass, color, light, and the relationship between them.
Long before he was a visual artist, Alteronce Gumby was a musician and an architect-in-training—he even dabbled in drama, moonlighting as a student at Yale University. “I’m someone who likes to keep my brain going, and to keep challenging myself,” the abstract painter tells me, speaking over Zoom from his studio in the Bronx on a recent afternoon. “Within that, I can evolve faster.”
Conversation with Gumby often goes this way, hopping between disciplines, sources of inspiration, and references to pop culture. One minute we’re talking about his favorite rappers and the next, he’s going into Sir Isaac Newton’s prism experiments, which led him to iridescent pigments . It makes sense that what piques his curiosity span genres—Gumby started out his artistic journey as an aspiring rapper.
