“When the South Rises”, 2011, fibre tips on cotton paper, 127 x 97cm / 50 x 38in from series We Don’t Need Another Hero – People of colour pose as outlaws of their post-apocalypses of colonialism in fictional movie poster portraits. Movie blurb… “The apocalypse has already happened, at least for the people of Abya Yala and the peoples of the third world. Centuries of colonialism, genocide, imperialism and exploitation have caused eternal darkness. But the sun is set to shine and the people from Abya Yala are set to rise. And when it happens, the north and the first world are going to face the consequences of their actions… payback has never been sweeter, nor bloodier” #apocalypse #postapocalyptic #movieposter #whenthesouthrises #thenorthshallbleed #southamerica #colombia #brownberet #machete #ontopoftheworld #wedontneedanotherhero #textaqueen (at Colombia)
