Umar Rashid’s drawings of the Cee-lo game extend his fascination with how play, chance, and power intersect across time. Cee-lo, a street dice game with roots in China’s Sic Bo and later embraced in African American communities, has long been a space where risk and luck reflect the larger forces that shape survival and hierarchy.
Cee-lo isn’t only about luck; it also rewards the style and confidence of the player, how they throw, talk, and carry themselves during the game. That performance of power and poise echoes the dynamics of empire itself, where control is often as much about appearance and persuasion as force. In both, chance and mastery intertwine: the throw of the dice, like the sweep of conquest, is shaped as much by charisma and bravado as by fate.

“What's interesting is that history is always written by the victor. There's all these different stories, and as a black person or African-American, as you will or whatever, I haven't figured out how I really fit into this history.”
-Umar Rashid
About the Artist
Umar Rashid
Umar Rashid, also known as Frohawk Two Feathers, is a Los Angeles-based multidisciplinary artist renowned for his vivid reimaginings of colonial histories. Through painting, drawing, sculpture, and storytelling, Rashid constructs alternative historical narratives that intertwine fact and fiction, often spotlighting the experiences of marginalized communities omitted from traditional accounts. His work delves into themes of race, power, empire, and resistance, blending influences from hip-hop culture, ancient mythology, and 18th-century colonial aesthetics.
Rashid's art has been featured in prominent exhibitions, including Made in L.A. 2020: a version at both the Hammer Museum and The Huntington Library in Los Angeles. In 2022, he presented his first solo museum exhibition in New York, Ancien Regime Change 4, 5, and 6, at MoMA PS1, showcasing over 30 new works that explore the dynamics of political and cultural power through history and fantasy. In 2024, in collaboration with BLUM he was a part of the PST ART: Art & Science Collide project with his solo exhibition The Kingdom of the Two Californias. La Época del Totalitarismo Part 2.
Select public collections include:
Brooklyn Museum, Hudson River Museum, Nevada Museum of Art, Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (Cape Town, South Africa), Ruth and Elmer Wellin Museum of Art at Hamilton College, Mount Holyoke College Art Museum, 21C Museum, The Progressive Collection, The Artist Pension Trust
