描述

Artist: Isiah Lattimoore. For this project I wanted to explain why it is so difficult to talk about the water crisis. One of the saddest things that I experienced during the water crisis was the recognition that it was one of many crises affecting me and my family at the time. I placed two identical panels in a blighted home that was where my best childhood friend first met. The painting on the left is "The Description" . This work is not destroyed but rather just scarred. The barely recognizable figure is of my younger brother. This figure is my attempt to explain the trauma that befalls urban youth as a result of living not only in close proximity of danger, poverty and systemic neglect, but also being looked at as a potential threat yourself. The painting to the right is "An Illustration". This work was me using the medium of drawing (and deconstruction) to illustrate the impact the water crisis had specifically. The left figure stands stoic and almost minisingly. Where with the right my intention was to capture the joyful boyish like charm that is seldom found, but vitally necessary for survival in urban areas like Flint.The contrast between the two figures is stark. This was to show that somes things, like poisoned water for example, affect people unbiasedly. My work is traditionally involved in documenting the process of obtaining and deconstructing elements of naturalism. In this work I try to expand that idea onto the materials themselves. The image housed within the frame is experiencing the same process that the physical image is experiencing. I illustrate a figure midway through its journey towards naturalism. Amidst the steps of its creation the work itself literally experiences the same process in the physical. By reverting the materials from what was a perfect form of a canvas back into the process to a deconstructed state. This is again an illustration of the process being mimicked by the image itself. Each painting in the video are for sale also and are 8ft x 4ft, mixed media (oil, charcoal, acrylic, aerosol) on panel.
