Kahlil Robert Irving
Put it on me – (New & Now) MEDIA, 2020
Digital print
24 x 18 inches
Edition of 50
Combining images and materials drawn from diverse sources and histories, Kahlil Robert Irving works with sculpture, textile, printmaking, and collage to reflect upon his biography and the socio-political context of Black life in America. For this poster, Irving integrates imagery of clouds and regional maps with pop-culture references, news headlines, and digital ephemera to examine the insidious ways institutional racism is exercised, sometimes violently. Irving’s work offers a powerful meditation on Blackness and the urban street as a site of becoming and resistance.
