Installation & Performance, 2010, Secession (Vienna, Austria)

Nine Black women* and women* of color, with black outfits and bright blue eyes, are spread out in the exhibition space, observing the artwork amongst the spectators. Their presence and their homogeneous appearance cannot be ignored. The occupation has started. The nine women’s* costumes symbolize two important anchor points in the history of black resistance. Their black outfits give tribute to the Black Panther Party, expressing their importance as a significant resistance group in all black history.
