Laylah Ali: Drawings From the Typology Series April 6, 2007

'Laylah Ali: Drawings from the Typology Series' features Laylah Ali's gouache paintings and drawings on paper. While whimsical at first glance, on closer inspection they offer disturbing insight into power struggles, racial subjugation, oppression and political abuse. The disturbingly rendered cartoon-like scenarios beg us to superimpose our own narratives over the images, as Ali provides no text or speech bubbles.
