Standing Still presents paintings by Frank James Williams shaped by the legacy of Black Noir cinema. Drawing on figures from his life, Williams uses stark architecture, charged gazes, color-saturated light, and expressive shadows to create scenes of tension and introspection. New works appear alongside early drawings, revealing a practice that confronts power, vulnerability, racism, and resilience through a singular, quietly authoritative visual language.
