Hazlewood's project on behalf of Aljira, Current Identities, Recent Painting in the United States, was the US prize-winning representation at the Bienal International de Pintura, Cuenca, Ecuador, in 1994.
[3] Hazlewood works with a number of different mediums, including modern performance installations, mixed-media, sculpture, abstract drawing, painting, photography, and digital exhibition/performance.
Describing his own work, Hazlewood says: For a culturally complex 'black' person from the Caribbean there were, inevitably, demanding questions concerning painting's relevance.
But working now, in photography and multimedia installations, my interest is in paring down complexities to essential practical ideas; particularly those basic ones that concern the visual and establishing an assertive abstract image.
[3] Hazlewood with Victor Davson co-founded Aljira, a not-for-profit contemporary visual art center, in 1983, to promote the work of emerging and under-represented artists.
