Description
On a black background, a hyperrealistic color portrait of George Floyd. His sweatshirt is covered with abstract paint smears blending together in shades of red, white and blue. Floyd's face and hair are outlined with sketchy black streaks. Overlaid across the foreground are a series of text. Discernible in white across Floyd's face is a quote by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.: “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” Overlaid above that, in the background, is the same quotation in blue. A final layer reads "walk with hate // love" with hate crossed out, so that only love remains. "George Floyd Matters" is written faintly above Floyd's head and the artist's signature "So Many Possibilities" is visible below.
