Juxtapoz Magazine - Esmaa Mohamoud: What Does Webster's Say About Soul? @ Roberts Projects, Los Angeles

Known for her conceptual practice that incorporates familiar objects and symbols from Black visual culture-including football equipment, peacock chairs, lowriders and butterflies-Mohamoud reimagines her source materials by transforming their scale and layering cultural references to recontextualize their interpreted meaning. The exhibition's title comes from Gil Scott-Heron's spoken word poem Comment #1 (1970), which earnestly describes the violence of racial and social inequality in America during that time.
