QUIET STORM: Selected Works by Elijah Trice

Quiet Storm is an exhibition rooted in restraint, where power reveals itself without spectacle. In this body of work, Baltimore-based artist Elijah Trice explores strength that does not announce itself, but endures. The paintings resist volume and excess, favoring subtlety, stillness, and emotional density over overt declaration.

Trice’s figures occupy a space of quiet assertion. Their presence is measured, their gestures minimal, yet their weight is undeniable. Rather than dramatizing experience, the work allows meaning to accumulate slowly, asking viewers to look longer and listen more closely. Power here is not performed; it is held.

The exhibition reflects an understanding that some of the most profound forms of resilience and authority exist beneath the surface, embedded in posture, in pause, in the decision not to explain oneself. These works speak to lives shaped by pressure and persistence, where composure itself becomes an act of resistance.

Quiet Storm reframes silence as force. The work does not demand attention; it commands it through presence alone, reminding us that what is quiet can still be unshakably powerful.
