Tanya Weddemire Gallery will make its inaugural presentation at The Armory Show 2026, featuring contemporary artists O’Neil Scott and Austin Uzor in an exploration of immigration, displacement, identity and the diasporic experience.

The presentation brings together Jamaican-born Scott and Nigerian-born Uzor, whose distinct approaches create a visual dialogue around the experiences of immigrants navigating and rebuilding their lives in foreign lands.

Scott, an oil painter born in Spanish Town, Jamaica and based in Philadelphia, works across figuration and abstraction, often placing the human subject at the centre of his compositions. His work explores immigrants as conduits of resilience, strength and tenacity as they create new physical and emotional sanctuaries far from where they began.
