Income Inequality, Imagine challenges performative obedience in relation to capitalist behaviors and the attention economy. The work emphasizes the violent cycle of eduction, housing and job discrimination. I highlight the racist and sexist histories deeply rooted within American normatives, while simultaneously aiming to provide avenues for alternative cultures by illustrating acts of disobedience through illustrative sceneries, distorted form, expressive figure and playful color choices.
