Spoke Gallery is proud to present a solo exhibition by Derrick Rogers entitled, Untold Insight. For his first solo exhibition, Rogers is a showing selection of works, completed in 2023 and 2024, that range from collage, to drawing, to painting. His artworks allow the viewer to experience his unique visual language that draws from his imagination, his art influences and his experiences as a young black artist growing up and living in a major U.S. city.
