Lester Merriweather Art

American, b. 1978
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.

Figurehead

By Omoayo George Osoba

Located in Ibadan, Oyo

In the days when every seaport had its figurehead to show, this same day calls for free, I must go save these countrymen, my honorable crew if they still breathe. I must sail deep down north again, with strong men and skillful hands. All I ask this day is dread naught and a star to steer her as the people blare for salvaging; And all I ask again is a windy day and a friendly storm at night, And a sweet dream with my shipment when the long cruise is over. (Written by the Artist) Shipping Procedure Ships in a well-protected tube from Nigeria This work is unique, not a print or other type of copy. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
