Description

16" x 16" Die-Cut Archival Pigment Print on 290gsm Moab Fine Art Paper. LIMITED EDITION OF 40. "The concept for this piece was inspired by Colin Kaepernick's protest against systemic racism and rights violations. Looking closely at the details you can see the football shoulder pads, the number 7 chain, and the IMWITHKAP patch that all reference his mission. The idea being that standing for a cause may lead to persecution in the short term but in the end there is no question who is on the right side of history. "A stamp symbolizes a degree of authority. It's a place reserved for the biggest heroes and the most important historical figures. I think as black people we need to see more of our heroes represented in this light.". ––Yung Yemi.
