I’ll be creating a series dedicated to the folklore of birds in Africa that I learned about during my trip to West Africa last year, as well as birds I’ll study about during a trip to Kenya this July. Look out for Fellow Residents, Carolyn Monastra and Dennis RedMoon Darkheem’s solo shows that will take place later in the year.

Human remains, looted objects and even live captives served as the trophies of antiquity, denoting victory. This trophy would often be shown to their authorities for prestige and in some cases, a greater reward. Combat on the international stage, can often result a figure in society being reduced to a potential win. Civilians serve as a buffer of protection for the more important players. Royalty are bookended by religious leaders, military leadership and their fortress.

This work was originally inspired by his ancestry research beginning from a trip to his recent ancestor’s homeland of Grenada in Spring of 2022.

Working across painting, sculpture, installation, digital art and video, he creates sacred structures that draw from his personal ancestry and our cultural zeitgeist to honor the African Diaspora. A first-generation American of Grenadian, West African and Italian heritage, Mohr’s work references a burgeoning reclamation of the spiritual practices of Africa that have been obscured by legacies of colonialism and slavery.

This work consists of Pawns sculptures caught in between two kingdoms, with the final series, “Atrophy Kingdom” unveiling at Bronx Museum in early 2024 as the culminating show following his Bronx AIM Fellowship.

The term is often associated with a religious or spiritual place of reverence, or shrines. Conversely, people can also take refuge in creature comforts and carnal vices that are not so uplifting. Sanctuary is a meditation on the positive and negative forces that one can serve, filtered through the lens of a millennial artist with various intersectional identities, and who is a product of American society. In order to create these experiences, assembled sentimental and personal objects were used, as well as original paintings and sculpture.

Although police brutality toward black people on the U.S. has always been present in this country, racial tensions and the feeling of isolation hit a new milestone in 2020. This was a time when people were staying inside, and not sharing space or food with their neighbors. In the midst of this uncertainty, as well as the assassinations of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery, it was only natural to reflect […] - [BLOODLINE](https://dariomohr.com/bloodline/): BLOODLINE This series is an original creation myth narrative by Dario Mohr loosely inspired by the mother of the Earth (Gaia), The Bible, as well Homo Deus (A book by Yuval Harari). In this narrative, the story begins with the Black mother of nature and humanity sitting atop her Acacia tree throne, providing lifeblood to her organic children. Due to the treachery and defiance of her creation, a new breed of human upgrades (self genetically mutated super humans) turn on her in hopes to claim her throne and posess her powers of immortality and dominion over the Earth. Their greed […] - [Miscellaneous Works 2021](https://dariomohr.com/miscellaneous-works-2021/): Miscellaneous Works 2021 The Void is Watching Original paintings, digitally edited, animated and projected on wall, glass cubes, LED lights, cushion, displayed at VR World. https://youtu.be/2YaXqqRnBJE Yoga projected original photography that was digitally collaged and animated, Velvet and rhinestone bed headboard, yoga mat The Zipper Fabric, metal pedestal, retractable metal bars, object assemblag Flourish  Object and faux flower assemblage - [Altar-Eden](https://dariomohr.com/altar-eden/): ALTAR-EDEN ​Altar-Eden is inspired by Nature (The Earth as well as natural human sexuality) through the progression of humankind’s domestication of nature, resulting in the facade or imitation of nature. This symbolism of the progression of nature is illustrated in a parallel way through the projections depicting cosmological and spiritual iconography referencing Human Design, through the lens of the human sexuality spectrum. In Juxtaposing the natural with the digital, this series attempts to convey the fate of life when humanity becomes involved.

Having stepped away from my Anglican, Christian faith as a teenager, I embarked on a decade long exploration into Eastern spirituality. Eventually I came to learn that I, like a lot of my fellow Black, U.S. citizens had not done much research on the spiritual practices of my ancestors in Africa. This is in part due to our brutally severed ties from our original homelands in Africa, as well as having assimilated into a faith that our most recent ancestors have […] - [Archetypes: A Visual Soundtrack](https://dariomohr.com/archetypes-a-visual-soundtrack/): Archetypes: A Visual Soundtrack (Created as Artist in Resident at Materials For The Arts) ​“Archetypes: A Visual Soundtrack” is an exploration of Jungian archetypes and the collective unconscious through music and popular culture. Mohr has transformed fabric, furniture, and found objects into twelve shrine-like works, which represent Carl Jung’s archetypes and pay homage to some of the greatest departed musicians of our time.  The  exhibition combines the physical and the metaphysical transforming MFTA into a sacred, meditative space. Each work, crafted with glowing LED lights, glows with a reverential energy.  “Archetypes: A Visual Soundtrack” is the largest exhibition to be on […] - ["Don't Let It Slip Through Your Fingers"](https://dariomohr.com/dont-let-it-slip-through-your-fingers/): “Don’t Let It Slip Trough Your Fingers” “Don’t Let It…” “…Slip Through…” and “…Your Fingers” includes three acrylic painted and assembled works that are inspired by the loss of a cherished object. These 3 works were presented as a solo show at Flux Factory at the end of Mohr’s Artist Residency there.  In addition to these 3 works which were presented indoors, 4 additional public works were presented in parks throughout the spring and summer 2021. Objects are endowed with the power of reference by the signifier.

This aspects of this projects conception was informed by Jalisa Gilmore during my fellowship with Human Impact Institute.   I would like for audiences to reflect on the trophy and what it symbolizes.

U.S.](https://dariomohr.com/blood-is-thicker-than-the-water-that-separated-u-s/): Blood is Thicker than the Water that Separated. U.S. Dario Mohr is a first-generation Grenadian, U.S. citizen, and self-described grandma’s boy. He visited his grandmother and family in Grenada throughout his childhood until she passed away in 2013. This event kept him away from Grenada for several years, and then in 2019, he lost his most cherished possession: a gold and diamond ring embossed with his first initial that she had given him in childhood. Living with the fast-paced lifestyle that NYC requires, he had not grappled with the magnitude of the loss until the 2020 pandemic, when many of […] - [Temple of Acacia](https://dariomohr.com/temple-of-acacia/): Temple of Acacia Temple of Acacia Ancestor Veneration Ceremony​ Family Tree Acrylic on canvas, upholstery studs, object assemblage, custom-built altar cabinet frame (Cabinet altar designed by Dario Mohr, fabricated by Cody Umans), dimensions variableThe Acacia Plant can be seen as an African symbol as it grows throughout the continent.  In this show, it serves as a religious icon for the veneration of ancestors, and for our collective ancestry as a people.
