Emancipation - oil sold

Artist's Statment

From the ashes of slavery rises the hope of the future of the New African. The old African hangs from an oak tree, bound, staked and crucified, tortured, yet strengthened by his historical role as a subhuman being which was forced upon him by racial slavery. Yet his sacrifice creates a path through which his descendants may travel with the assistance
of a divine spirit.
