Palo Gallery presents Southern Whips, the New York solo debut of Auudi Dorsey, featuring eight new paintings exploring Southern Black culture and car culture. Dorsey’s work captures the significance of customized cars as symbols of identity, status, and autonomy for Black men in the South. His earthy palette emphasizes the richness of Black skin, and his large-scale pieces reflect the donk car movement—vehicles elevated with oversized wheels—celebrating resilience, pride, and personal expression.
