For my Senior Thesis Show, I explored the issues of racism and profiling, and the stigmas against black masculinity. People judge others by the color of their skin, the way they dress, or the tattoos on their body before they know the content of their character. In this series, six incredible men share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences on growing up in a country where some identify people by cultural, historical, and political forces before learning and getting to know who they truly are.
These are photographs I took that I brought into Photoshop and edited, reducing the original image to 30 colors and then down to duotones. There are four 24″x36″ and two 36″x24″ posters.
