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.

FRAME #86: Original Animation Frame from Fistfuls of Diamonds
Located in Signal Mountain, TN
This black and white still from McLean Fahnestock's animated video titled "Fistfuls of Diamonds," depicts two planes attempting to put out wildfires with water. The "water" in this case, has been replaced with glitter by the artist.

They signified disasters and ecological shifts. The increase in wildfire events is due in part to the encroachment of larger, developed communities onto lands that were previously maintained for fire season by natural means or by the Forest Service...
