McBride / Dillman is pleased to present Ameyn, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Jeffrey Melo. In Ameyn, Melo situates faith within a landscape of profound instability—shaped by crisis, repetition, and emotional fatigue. This body of work emerges from global conflict - the widening U.S. military engagement in Iran, the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, alongside rising domestic turmoil marked by intensified ICE raids and enforcement actions that have raised alarm over racial profiling and civilian deaths. Against this backdrop, the work reflects on how individuals locate themselves within uncertainty and strive to sustain a sense of steadiness over time.
