Alvin Roy is a mid-career painter and sculptor who lives and works in Houston, Texas. Roy has exhibited extensively notably as part of the national tour “Southern Journeys: African American Artists of the South” (2012). Alvin Roy’s abstract paintings from torn painted paper are inspired by the quilting tradition passed down by the women in his family and his wall sculptures are deep spiritual icons embodying the power of Egyptian myth and ancient archetypes. Alvin Roy’s abstract artworks will be on view in Bridgehampton, NY from August 11 – 14, 2022 and in New York City during the Art on Paper Fair Sept. 8 – 11, 2022 at Pier 36. This virtual exhibition is a response to the difficulties that artists have faced getting their work viewed during the Pandemic.
