A Breadth Apart; Dee (SM009)

Dee Size: 594 x 841mm

Material: Aluminium Dibond Print 

This exhibition presents 16 portraits of Black people based in Scotland wearing face masks designed in collaboration with artist Fiona Catherine Powell. The masks were made using a collection of vibrantly coloured African fabrics. By choosing to have the participants wear brightly patterned masks I am advocating the importance of wearing face masks to prevent the spread of Covid-19 whilst highlighting the relationship between systemic racism and healthcare. These images were exhibited as part of the BLM Mural Trail 2020 produced by Wezi Mhura and exhibited with Sharing Not Hoarding in Dundee, Scotland.
