Description
If New York was the epicenter of the pandemic, Georgia has been ground zero for so many our political and social divides. All the events and people depicted in this artwork have come to the forefront this during 2020-2021–from the killing of Ahmaud Arbery by armed vigilantes to the to the police shooting of Rayshard Brooks shortly after the death of George Floyd, Stacy Abrams’ pivotal effort in turning out the vote for both the presidential race and the elections of Raphael G. Warnock and Jon Osseff, the recent and tragic murder of eight people, six of whom where Asian, and the current efforts to suppress the vote—this has been a year of twists and turns unseen since the height of the Civil Rights efforts in the sixties.
