UNSEEN, not because we literally cannot be seen, but because we are not seen for who we really are. We being Black people in America.
American media is saturated with false narratives and imagery which has created false perceptions of Blackness, leading to the degradation and
dehumanization of Black people.
Ironically, this body of work was created as I saw myself in someone else on television. As I watched the murder of a Black man, a father, a brother, and a son, I saw myself and couldn’t help but think...That could be me.
