Hank Willis Thomas - Black Power, 2006

Digital chromogenic print (c-print)

Black Power, 2006 demonstrates a tension between a struggle for racial equity and acknowledgment as well as a commodification of identity through popular media.

"My goal with the work is to employ the familiar, or what-goes-without-saying, to draw connections and provoke conversations about issues and histories that are often forgotten or avoided in our commerce-infused daily lives."

—Hank Willis Thomas
