About the Item
In AFFIRMATIVE ACTION, Samuel Dunson creates an epic work that encompasses generations, drawing upon his own personal creative history and inspirations to express the life-giving benefits of positive influence. Working upon a hand-sewn canvas of repurposed fabric, he portrays himself in the center of the painting during three time periods of his life (his youth, his adulthood, his present day). These three eras are bonded through a cosmic connection that transcends time: the Samuel Dunson of today reaches down, planting a bridge of flowers as a path upon which the younger artists can walk. At the bottom of his painting can be seen some of the real results of these patterns of cross-generational inspiration: Dunson’s former (and present) house numbers are lined up at the bottom of the painting, revealing what can be possible through these cycles of positive influence.
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION is a work of acrylic, oil, vinyl, yarn, and glitter, united on a handmade cushion.
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION was included in Samuel Dunson’s September 2022 solo show at Channel to Channel.
