Artist Statement
What Microaggressions and casual racism stemming from the impact of white supremacy is often overlooked in the black community? I used warm colors to represent emotions I identify with colors such as resentment, anger, and loneliness. I also intentionally combined the use of my color range with tan shades like newspaper grounds or tan backgrounds to make the colors pop. For the pieces I used newspaper grounds I wanted to convey specific messages such as the way black people are portrayed in the media, as well as through the lens of society. I used different characters to touch base on the struggles experienced by different people within the community. |
