Untitled Study of Incarcerated with Angel
n.d.
Pencil on Artist’s Paper
24” x 18”
Two studies are artistically arranged on a large sheet of artist’s paper. The smaller study works out the geometry of a print. In the larger of these two studies, incarcerated people trudge along with shackles. Although they are clearly downtrodden, there is hope as a tall angel with long arms looms over them in a protective caring manner. Some of the prisoners cast their eyes upwards in an appreciative fashion. Systemic racism led to massive incarceration, and with that, a forced labor akin to slavery.
