Laylah Ali

Untitled, from "The Greenheads Series", 1999, 13" x 9" gouache on paper, Collection of Harold and Bernicestine Bailey
Working in gouache, Laylah Ali creates cartoon-like artworks that at first seem forthright and direct. A closer look reveals a dialogue on the ever-shifting power balances of race, class, and gender that occur within cultural groups.
