“A TRIBUTE to COURAGEOUS BLACK WOMEN FIGHTING for INCLUSION”
This project drained emotional strength out of me daily. I sobbed as I researched.
Unsolicited by me, black women poured their stories out, some newly revealed to themselves, of rape, constant fear and feelings of self worthlessness.
It made me want to run away, to escape from the pain. At one point the creation of my claywork froze. I felt crippled, overwhelmed.
BUT I had no option but to continue. I embraced the courage from these remarkable women to continue my project.
I sculpted a beautiful young black dancer and showed her to my husband. He told me not until 2015 was first the black ballerina given a lead in a major US ballet.
My niece, a black attorney living in an affluent neighborhood in D.C. fears for her young black son walking outside in a hoodie.
I had to do something positive with my rage and feelings of helplessness.
So I began my intensive journey sculpting portraits of Courageous Black Women Fighting for Inclusion.
Immersed in FEAR I sat at my studio table unable to begin. In all my 70 years of creating Art I never was interested in creating a portrait. Not that I didn’t challenge myself on every piece I create. But now in fear I confronted myself “By telling me to sculpt these portraits, you are demanding me to succeed beyond my ability. Telling me to jump off a high cliff when I tremble at heights”
I felt unsafe and scared. These courageous Black women gave me courage.
I began days of up close battling to create my first portrait. One day I viewed my portrait from a distance walking out of my studio. I started to shake and could not stop. Surprised, I blurted out “Who sculpted that?”
The gift of Courage. Finding courage to give homage and life through my portraits and drawings of these incredible women is an honor.
Please work with me to make the world less full of hate.
Thank you,
Judith Unger
