“Unsung Martyr, George Stinney Jr.” (2018) 36x48 inches, acrylic paint and permanent marker on stretched canvas. This piece won Best of Show at the First Annual AUC Arts Festival, November 12, 2018. The theme of the festival was social justice so I decided to paint George Stinney Jr., the youngest person ever to receive the electric chair. He was exonerated 54 years after his execution. This piece is a permanent fixture at the Robert W. Woodruff Library in Atlanta, Georgia.
Founder of Infinity
Two things in this life are infinite; energy and creativity.
Infinity Art Gallery & Design studio, founded in Atlanta, Georgia by Angelo Pierro (Pierre’) Hopson in 2019 while he attended Clark Atlanta University as a full-time student studying Supply Chain Management. Angelo has been a creative his entire life. He started drawing at the age of two and won his first art contest in Kindergarten. The following year Angelo was selected for the Talented Arts Program (TAP) by the St. Tammany Parish School Board where he was exposed to various forms of visual art, including various medias, and techniques to improve his craft. Since then Angelo Hopson has received numerous awards and accolades for his riveting “story-esque” style imagery which captures both the beauty and the struggle of peculiar peoples. He evokes his creative energy from ancestral greatness, that which came before him and that which will arrive after him. Art is a story and the narrative is always changing. Angelo looks at himself as a narrator. He started Infinity Art Gallery & Design studio to bring forth fellow narrators, fellow creatives, a space where we all can tell our stories.
