Canvas of Experiences

  

Canvas of Experiences. Digital art created on canvas. October 26, 2024. Afrika Abney 

I chose brown ochre to represent the color of my skin. White and black to represent the racism and discrimination that I began to experience in the 1990s and continued beyond the 1990s. There is darkness within the experiences of racism and discrimination. However, the contrasting colors represent the persistence of overcoming the hardships of experiencing racism and discrimination.
