“You can’t help it. An artist’s duty, as far as I’m concerned, is to reflect the times.” – Nina Simone
The visual narrative of this piece, took me longer where i found myself censoring myself twice. Originally the narrative was about my travels to China travel. Additionally I wanted to include reflections to go along with the COVID 19 narrative but felt people were not ready due to fear of the unknown.
Reflective Remembrance
I found myself doing more reflective remembrance and memorial about “viruses” of North American racism as well as COVID 19 and reflections of September 11, 2001 (9/11).. Im fascinated by how America has endured U.S politics and undergone a change in our way of life as a civilian during these modern times of 21st century.
Anarchy In L.A.
Even the day of finishing this project, I was taking heat by local anarchists accusing me of being on the side of the oppressors because i posted a Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., quote about peaceful and organized protest. Go figure!?!
