Drawings on paper
Proposal
The In/Visible Men/d series was a site-specific installation of life size cut out graphite renderings of Black individuals occupying a space often where their presence has been considered undesirable. The juxtaposition of life size graphite cut out figures in actual spaces emphasizes the politics of color, architecture, race and hierarchies.
