Domestic Brutality - Wall Treatments

Featured In McColl Center for Art + Innovation, Charlotte, NC

Starts at $10,000

This temporary wall installation, made from acrylic paint and found objects, was created for McColl Center for Art + Innovation in 2019. This black and blue installation, which combines western decorative motifs with images of police brutality (regularly seen on the news as well as on social media and YouTube), puts focus on the blind indifference of many American households to this unnecessary violence. That violence which is so prevalent in our American experience today is so engrained in our lives that it becomes background noise, as easy to overlook as the images embedded in our decorative wallpaper.
