Malcolm In MIllennia
The headline in the newspaper is a nod to Gil Scott-Heron's The Revolution Will Not Be Televised. The paper I designed and printed on Newsprint.
The series was presented in 2 galleries in New York City and ultimately made its way as an article to Emulsive.org.
When not designing or leading a set, Chris can be seen behind a film camera.

entry description
This portrait is part of a series exploring the question 'what would Malcolm do?' if Malcolm X were alive in 2018/19. I was inspired to shoot this concept after pondering for way too long on the merit of a small screen telling us what to do and how to live as we walk mindlessly around the city with our necks arched, acknowledging posts on Instagram and not the humans in our surroundings.The headline in the newspaper is a nod to Gil Scott-Heron's The Revolution Will Not Be Televised. The paper I designed and printed on Newsprint.
