Paul Anthony Smith: Tradewinds

Paul Anthony Smith‘s “Tradewinds” features a series of the artist’s latest picotage on pigment prints, exploring his own Caribbean lineage and the legacies that come with it. Following the events of the past year—like the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor—Smith utilizes his new works to question why these people became suddenly more significant after their lives ended, asking what steps we can take to see humanity while it is right in front of us.
