“When I do a series of paintings, I approach it like an album, each piece is a single,” says self-taught artist Amir Lyles in the back room of his florid gallery named S.O.N. A.R.T. 

Since December 2014 the gallery has made 7122 Germantown Avenue its home and leaves visitors anxious to return. 

Look anywhere on the walls and your eyes are enticed by bold images of musicians, civil rights leaders, or ordinary people surviving.  Roots music coming from in-house DJ Osiris’ turntables take sweet smelling incense helps you enjoy the Son Art experience—an experience owners Amir Lyles and Naeemah Patterson are honing daily.

“Leave your reservations at the door,” Lyles said. We’re not by those books, we’re by our books.  We do it the way we do it.

The name of the gallery is an acronym for “Something Out of Nothing, A Revolutionary Talent,” chosen before Patterson gave birth to their twin daughters.  Patterson endorses the space, encouraging Lyles to make the space universal for all talent.
