Tiff Massey Celebrates Detroit Culture and Style in Monumental Mixed-Media Installations — Colossal

Tiff Massey is a Detroit-based artist who is making waves with her larger-than-life sculptures and installations that pay homage to the city’s unique style and culture. Trained as a metalsmith, Massey uses her expertise to create stunning pieces that celebrate Black identity and the vibrant neighborhoods of Detroit.

Her solo exhibition, “7 Mile + Livernois,” at the Detroit Institute of Arts, is a tribute to the Black business and fashion district where Massey grew up. The exhibition draws inspiration from the crossroads of 7 Mile and Livernois, a bustling area that is undergoing revitalization with the help of Massey’s new arts and community space project.

Massey’s work is a fusion of jewelry, sculptures, and mixed-media assemblages that highlight the importance of personal adornment in Black culture. Pieces like “Whatupdoe” and “Everyday Arsenal” transform everyday objects like chain necklaces and rings into monumental installations that create a sense of grandeur and power.

The artist finds inspiration in the “ancestral flyness” of her parents and previous generations, who have influenced her own sense of style and creativity. Massey explains, “Detroiters, when we step outside, we step outside. We want people to see it. We want people to see us. And that has left a tremendous impression on me.”

“7 Mile + Livernois” is on display at the Detroit Institute of Arts until May 11. To learn more about Tiff Massey and her work, visit her website and follow her on Instagram.

From oversized ball hair ties to intricate braided wigs, Massey’s art captures the essence of Detroit’s fashion and beauty. Her installations are a bold and colorful celebration of Black identity and culture, and a testament to the power of art to reflect and uplift communities.
