Themes and Conceptual Frameworks
A central concept in Pendleton's work is "Black Dada," a term he uses to discuss the present moment by addressing both the future and the past. This concept is exemplified in his Black Dada series of paintings, which feature partial views of Sol LeWitt's cube sculptures alongside letters derived from the phrase "Black Dada." This phrase itself originates from the 1964 poem "Black Dada Nihilismus" by Amiri Baraka.
His various series and installations explore different visual and linguistic systems:
