Today I got inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat. With his art work he plaid ironically on notions of "primitive" art in order to question stereotypes of black artists. Not to mentions that he started as graffiti artist and got fame and fortune almost overnight, worked with Warhol and Clemente, all before his untimely death at the age of 28.
So I decided question myself as being Easter European in 1st world country- United Kingdom. My plan is to show what people expect me to be, their stereotypes against the reality.
Not quiet sure which form this project is going to take, but definitely a visual one.
PS ZYDECO is the name given to a form of Cajun music. Zydeco is also a name of this art work.
