The Biracial series is constructed by weaving two different women’s faces of diverse ethnic backgrounds and age together. A checkerboard pattern develops from the process as well as a new design element on the edges of the 3-dimensional object. What functional object do the works in the Biracial series remind you of? Here, the distinctly recognizable faces of women of color are interwoven into a new composite face.
