Premonition - Sharon Silvia
-
Premonition was created to accompany an article about
Japanese-Americans, including artists, who were unjustly imprisoned in America's detention
camps. The then-popular viewpoint towards Japanese-American citizens... that all
Japanese men, women and children were interchangeable and posed a potential
threat to the United States... was an unsubstantiated belief that caused Japanese-Americans inexcusable disrespect
and suffering. The work was created by designing digital objects, then repeating,
reshaping and resizing them.
