To migraines, Bhare’s latest series, meticulously crafts the visuals of ocular distortions to capture the essence of fleeting memories in ever repeating patterns. A turnabout creation after his past series cold leftovers, Bhare’s pastel illustrations reflect upon the shift in survival and preservation to celebration of one’s own story and livelihood. These patterns are to be honoring his past while introducing a shifty uneasy feeling of infinitely repeating images. 

Normalcy is understated. Black American history has taken so many shapes over the course of more than 200 years — us now having luxuries not afforded to our communities before. As we rapidly evolve as a society, no longer do we find ourselves crafting patterns out of necessity. Bhare intentionally highlights commonplace events — birthday parties, first pets, anything rooted in finding a sense of normalcy in his scope of the world.

As Black stories further cement themselves in history, shifting the culture on its head, Bhare prompts inquiry into our creations moving forward: How will visual patterns retain their weight outside the context of survival? Who benefits from the most poignant renderings of our memories and livelihood?

Far past these intense queries, Bhare emphasizes the emotional craftsmanship weaved within these complex principles of art. His folky, breathy iconography  invites viewers to lose themselves in repetition, confronting the validity of their own perceptions of memory.
