See work by 'Black Panther' muralist Brandon Sadler at virtual studio visit
Event
Tour the studio of SCAD alum Brandon Sadler (B.F.A., illustration, 2009), founder of the Atlanta-based studio Rising Red Lotus. Sadler’s work is prominently featured in Shuri’s lab in the film Black Panther. He is well known for murals that balance ancient and modern techniques, incorporating text, illustration, and painting.
SCAD FASH commissioned Sadler to create a series of site-specific wall paintings and digital illustrations for the exhibition Ruth E. Carter: Afrofuturism in Costume Design, on view through Sept. 12. Inspired by African masks and Nigerian textiles, Sadler’s work connects Carter’s celebrated costume designs across various time periods and themes within the overarching concept of Afrofuturism.
Sadler’s clients include Marvel Studios, Disney, Adidas, and Google, as well as the Atlanta BeltLine and the Afro Punk Festival. His work has been the subject of both solo and group exhibitions and is held in the collection of the High Museum, Atlanta. Sadler was honored with a SCAD Distinguished Alumnus Award in 2019.
This event is open to public. It is presented on the occasion of SCAD deFINE ART 2021, as part of the SCAD virtual series Guests and Gusto.
