Poured Clean
Everything gone, and finally free.
Everything gone — the home, the noise, all of it — and finally free.
Poured Clean holds the face at rest, eyes closed, as the last of it pours away and leaves only what is pure. White moving down archival aluminum that catches every angle of the room.
Poured Clean is a one of one work by Harlem artist Corey Wesley, from the Unapologetic Faces series. Put it where people gather and the space instantly reads like a collector's, not a customer's.
Early is the only time to acquire a one of one. Signed, and archived on placement. There is no second.

Each one of one. Once acquired, it does not return.
Corey Wesley
Corey Wesley is a Harlem artist. His practice was shaped by the faces he studied on the subway, in recovery rooms, in the space between performance and collapse. He creates what remains when the face stops performing.
The inaugural exhibition at Goddard Riverside Community Arts drew 150 in attendance. Corey Wesley curated the show alongside Scott M. Lilly and Ayiana Viviana. Press, collectors, and interior designers responded consistently: breathtaking.
The faces in these works are archetypes, not portraits. They belong to everyone. And no one.
