Series 10: Black Art Rising
Black creative voices in the arts are critically underrepresented. Throughout history, Black creators have shown us and continue to convey the profound power of their art, often using it as a vehicle to showcase the vital perspectives on systemic racism and the black experience.
LIFEWTR “Black Art Rising” series will bring that very celebration of the Black experience and creative expression to the forefront. This series will spotlight Black artists from diverse backgrounds and their creations that are inspired by urban impressions, lived experiences, and Black identity.
This is an extension of the LIFEWTR Black Art Rising time capsule, a digital immortalization of the arts of seven Black creatives and their art in hopes to showcase the powerful impact that Black protest art has on the movement to tackle systemic racism and injustice against the Black community.
Series 10
Dawn Okoro is a Nigerian American artist who lives and works in Austin, Texas. Her work is informed by the composition techniques used in fashion photography. Using oil, acrylic, and pencil, she incorporates photography, collage, and ideas from punk and popular culture. Her artwork embodies space, movement, pattern, design, texture, and color; as well as lived experiences and self-reflexivity. Self-reflexivity is a process by which she critically examines the experiences (exterior and interior) that shape her everyday life and those that surround her.
Features/Honors:
When people see Roshi they say they see joy. I think that’s right – I want people to see joy and see happiness and see a black person simply living in the mundane and just being.

This series will celebrate artists whose practices focus on upcycling, ecologic materials, and green processes, and who in turn inspire their audiences to reimagine how we live and interact with our environment.
