Deborah Roberts: Fragile but Fixable
1110 Mateo St. Los Angeles CA, 90021
Saturday, May 12 at 6:00 PM 8:00 PM
Ends Jun 16, 2018
Deborah Roberts creates powerful and visually arresting collages that explore the complexities of girlhood, self-image, popular culture, and the legacies of racism. In Fragile but Fixable, Roberts continues to address the traumas, challenges and vulnerabilities faced by young Black girls at adolescence, a critical time when they are building their individual identities and their minds are easily influenced by White racial standards of beauty and the myths, clichés, and stereotypes of Black identity proliferated through the media, as well as the real-life abuse and violence that some of them experience in public and in private. This will be the artist's first solo exhibition in Los Angeles.
