Amy Sherald is a renowned artist known for her captivating grayscale portraits of Black Americans, including the iconic depiction of former First Lady Michelle Obama. In a new film by Art21 titled “Singular Moments,” viewers are taken on a journey from Sherald’s studio to her childhood bedroom in Columbus, Georgia, offering a comprehensive look into her creative process.

The film delves into the intricacies of Sherald’s artistic practice, showcasing her meticulous approach to painting. From reference photos taped to a wall to paint squirted onto paper plates, the artist’s methodical process is captured as she works on her large-scale canvases. Sherald’s focus on capturing a single moment of beauty is highlighted in the film, emphasizing the importance of creating visually striking and emotionally resonant artworks.

Sherald’s subjects often include people she knows personally, with a particular emphasis on capturing their faces and eyes before moving on to the rest of their figures. The artist views figuration as the soul food of art making, offering comfort and a sense of familiarity to both the artist and the viewer. Her belief in the power of beautiful paintings to evoke emotion and connection shines through in her work.

The film also provides a glimpse into Sherald’s upcoming solo exhibition, “American Sublime,” at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. Featuring around 50 works spanning from 2007 to the present, the exhibition explores themes of identity and Americanness through the artist’s unique lens. Viewers are invited into Sherald’s parents’ home, filled with nostalgic memorabilia and personal artifacts, adding another layer of depth to the artist’s practice.
