Despite The Spoils

This exhibition is the first annual show in a series of five which are inspired by a collection of artifacts unearthed during excavations on the Rutgers Newark campus. 

I was inspired to create Where is Malibu Christie? based on my experience looking for a black Barbie as a child.

LOCATION: Robeson Campus Center Gallery, 350 Dr MLK Blvd, Newark NJ
