Overview

In Play-House, this bare presentation acts as a metaphor for these homes, which are frequently disparaged as slums or markers of poverty. The installation highlights the reliance on the labor of Black bodies in Miami’s history. From the city’s construction to the operation of hotels and entertainment spaces, Black workers were fundamental to the area’s development. They returned to these shotgun houses to live and grow their families. As the designer for this exhibition, I drew inspiration from Germane's installation by integrating the colors and created a custom typeface for this exhibition.
