Aegor Ray
A painting of the George Floyd mural remade with a white figure in the center and text reading "THE BLACK EXPERIENCE VIA THE WHITE GAZE". Additional text reads, “Centering white voices around Black trauma does not allow for the accurate representation of our experiences or the accurate documentation of our history.”

The Black Experience via the White Gaze

Maiya Hartman

From their posture, slightly bent, they would appear to be elderly, ancestral. Around the figures two planets are connected by streams of blue line.
