ISB | White color pencil on black paper | 29.7 cm x 42.0 cm

This artwork was inspired by a book called “Sing, Unburied, Sing”. I decided to draw both pieces on black paper to signify discrimination that ties these characters together. The common theme between all of them is the effect of racism despite their conditions and age. I want everyone to understand that racism can affect everybody, racism is a big problem even to this day and can even affect young children. Racism will always be in our world, it’s been deeply rooted in history. Despite that, the least we could do is to raise awareness of the issue and mitigate our problems. Only then, can we move to solve this problem, and help move the world forward to a better place.
