Black History Black Studies Fine Arts Art Critical Race Theory Sculpture Basketball Plaster Material Afro-Pessimism Studio Practice Blackness Race Pompeii Internment Social Death This research uses personal and theoretical frameworks to unpack paradoxical notions of Blackness in both it’s political and chromatic understandings as related to my studio practice. Jared Sexton posits the color Black as simultaneously all-consuming and incomprehensible; a necessarily contradictory state. I utilize this concept in addition to material histories that span from Pompeii to modern day New York City and art historical references as foundational explanations of my work. Written in both formal and intimate voices, this text is an extension of my studio practice, situated at the nexus of the realization and subversion of binary states of existence. 2019-12-19 English text Oberlin College Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1559921388952569 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1559921388952569 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
