Uvdeshmukh Uncategorized November 4, 2024 Derek Fordjour reflects on the current national reckoning with mass shootings, and the relentless threat of violence against Black and Brown bodies. With Half Mast, Derek Fordjour debuts a new work that reflects on the current national reckoning with mass shootings, and the relentless threat of violence against Black and Brown bodies. A portrait of this divided moment in U.S. history, Half Mast presents law officers, students, and ordinary civilians in one compressed, shared space. Alongside teddy bears and balloons reminiscent of street-side memorials, some figures appear marked with targets while others have been reduced to silhouettes. Fordjour’s image holds no one person or group responsible for the violence, even as it speaks to loss and abuse of power.https://artsorigin.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pexels-photo-9543737-e1631863998281-1.jpeg
