The Ensemble Al-Salaam, ‘Malika’ (1974)
It is more than a Shopping Cart…
The shopping cart is the ultimate symbol of American consumer culture.
By combining this symbol with found materials that emote blight and decay, I am expressing my disillusionment with the idealized “American Dream” concept in which equality of opportunity is available to any and all Americans.
Still Studying Cage Wigs
I Am A Placemaker
Creative placemaking evokes shared emotions.
Art experiences can transform peoples’ perception of being different into a recognition of being the same, as humans. This inspires mutual trust and understanding, unifying and strengthening community identity and pride.
