This painting pays homage to Norman Lewis, a visual poet and abstract expressionist who used abstraction to tell the story of urban life and struggles in Black Diaspora. This visual study of ‘March on Washington’ shows how the struggles of modernism emerge through repetitious history and how history can be rewritten and redefined through the harmony of color.
