Untitled #6 (Young at Heart)
Photography W: 16" H: 20"
Artist Statement:
Young At Heart is the prelude to a larger visual narrative exploring Black diasporic in America through the experience of a couple. This particular photograph conveys a moment of their youth where they made a promise to always have each other’s back no matter the trials and tribulations. Using this promise as a starting point, Ed Maximus intends to weave a tapestry with a series of multidisciplinary work that could very much represent the story of his parents and many others who made countless sacrifices to build their life in this country.
