I just had to do something after George Floyd was murdered. The background is woven of strips of cloth in all the colors of people in the world, creating shapes that look like protest signs. George's portrait is made of transparent black netting, so he belongs to both worlds... the living and the no longer living. I hope people who see this will say his name.
