Lester Merriweather
The main interest within my art practice is restructuring the socio-economic standing and acknowledgement of people of color. Recent works re-contextualize printed ad material from fashion and lifestyle magazines and examines the ideas and systems that perpetuate social privilege, questioning advertisements which promote notions of racial prominence and/or inferiority.
