The book: Featured is graphic art in which Dawn takes archived photos and superimposes them with newer images that resonate in this day and age. The photos from before, during and after the 1921 race massacre have been obtained from The Greenwood Cultural Center ad Tulsa’s Historical Society and she layers the art with botanical and imaginary images. The history is prolific, the tragedy and even rebuild less than 5 years later is something that needs to be focused on and the art she creates bridges archived photos with her journalistic findings and even imagination; making the history come to life and even more digestible as well as memorable. Tree hopes to open minds and erupt conversation that brings real change.
