For example, I found seventeen Black lawn jockeys. I am interested in the repressed, dark, and racial commentary embodied in these artifacts. I knew that these were loaded objects, and I was very interested in not only the power within these objects but also how I could make decisions to reposition them. The lawn jockeys often hold lanterns in a subservient position; in this installation, I wanted to shift that [image]. The lawn jockeys at MASS MoCA are all holding beaded dream catchers—my effort to speak about optimism. I’m taking a stance. Yes, these objects are out there, in the space of disparity and repression, but I do not operate there. I’m responding to it by designing my own pathway and creating my own lifestyle. In spite of everything that’s happening, I can take control over my destiny and respond to these horrific concerns.]]> 2021-01-28 19:37:28 UTC https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1138292199 Haleyord https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1138319440 "Doors and doorways have been symbolic across cultures for as long as history has been recorded. A door is both an entrance and an exit, so it has been associated with portals and passageways on many levels throughout history. Doors are closely related to gates and thresholds because the three share some very similar symbolic features and sometimes work together to create passage."]]> 2021-01-28 19:43:16 UTC https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1138319440 Haleyord https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1139090755 2021-01-29 01:00:43 UTC https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1139090755 Haleyord https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1139103059 2021-01-29 01:08:00 UTC https://padlet.com/Haleyord/enhu3lzpabzext2/wish/1139103059
