Portrait of Dad

A work in progress experimenting with screen printing, acrylic paint, archival imagery, and fabric assemblage to create a portrait of my dad. The work pushes to portray the trauma that encapsulated his youth and that of many African-American men growing up in the United States.

Portrait of Dad (versions 1 and 2), screen print, acrylic, 594mm x 841mm, 2023.
