CARA MARIE YOUNG

Lemon juice, ink and white texture paste on paper
Unframed: 16 x 20 inches
Framed: 25 x 21 1/2 inches
(Framed and matted in white)

Inspired by the sculpture of Pandora releasing chaos in the world, this work makes contact with black history after being isolated in a white hegemony. The growth that I have experienced moving from Atlanta to Detroit, vibrates and echoes around me, exposing the zones of color that have been historically mapped and sustained through redlining and discrimination. Through decolonizing my mind and walking through these spaces, I am able to grow and make contact with my true self, even exposing the very roots of my hair and parts of my being that were forcefully hidden from me for a certain period of time.
