The alchemy of the border: Troy Montes-Michie in conversation with Brent Hayes Edwards -- Troy Montes-Michie: Fashion notes / Andrea Andersson -- Troy Montes-Michie: Visioning Black study / Tina Campt -- After words on new beginnings / Cameron Shaw. To tailor a garment by "rock of eye" is to rely on the drape on experience over mathematical measurement in the fitting process. It is a kind of drawing in space--a freehand, an intuition, a trust of materials. Rock of Eye, published on the occasion of Troy Montes-Michie's (born 1985) solo exhibition at the California African American Museum, is a collection of the artist's collages, drawings, and found and woven images sourced from vintage erotic magazines, French tailoring magazines, found photographs, and other materials. These materials are familiar from Montes-Michie's recent large-scale paintings and collages that center on the Black male body and his series that traces the social history and form of the zoot suit. Troy Montes-Michie was born in El Paso and his practice reflects his experience growing up along the US/Mexico border. This book is a study in ambiguity between portraiture and landscape; his are the cuts and folds of patterning and mapping. In Rock of Eye, Montes-Michie's stitches suture histories and geographies; they establish thresholds for crossing; his needle hits rock
