The Relief or Installation refers to the attire that the Slave Girl, Ann Maria Weems, may have worn to escaper her captors. Research at the Montgomery County Historical Society in Rockville,MD, (Residency) led to a series of works that addressed the lives of the African American Community who lived in the County at the time. The Historical Society was the home of the former slaves owners (Beall-Dawson). The work is textiles based using digital technology to manipulate the image. The design is collaged, stitched etc. The accessories are antique i.e. the new with the old and is a wall piece (Relief). Ann Maria Weems dressed as a man (disguise) to escape her captors in the mid 1800s.
