Lorna Simpson

“In love with the mixed media - photography, collage and writing included in her work to speak on themes of race, class and gender”

“Lorna Simpson’s work inspires me because of the way she interrogates memory, representation, and archival absence. Through photography, text, and found imagery, she challenges how Black identities have historically been documented and interpreted. I am particularly influenced by her ability to use fragmentation and ambiguity to encourage reflection on race, gender, history, and visibility.”
