Horns : 2009 : Acrylic on paper : 70 x 100cm :
£1,175 Pi’s homoerotic depictions
of black male nudes contain imagery that could be perceived as stereotyping. His
paintings show stylized masculine forms using horns as headdresses, plucking
chickens and using phallic gourds to cover their genitalia. But Pi says his
concern is with archetypes not stereotypes. SOLO EXHIBITIONS: The Crypt Gallery (St
