Hebru Brantley5 collaborationsHebru Brantley’s young characters are headstrong and ambitious. They appear across canvas, murals and sculpture, often adorned in suits and masks that reference fictional icons like Batman and the Incredible Hulk. As a child, Brantley did not see himself or his friends represented in the comic books and sci-fi stories that he loved. The majority of the narratives centred around one all-powerful figure who was the incarnation of a white male. Critical of this, Brantley translates all that he admires about superheroes into archetypal characters who represent people of colour in an amalgamation of street art, Manga and Pop Art. In parallel, Brantley also paints his artistic heroes, with Jean Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol making appearances on canvas.
