Excerpt from the artist's Impact Statement: "Exploring the unknown is attractive but, at the same time, dangerous and risky. [...] I find Olaudah Equiano inspiring and heroic because he dared to share his story as a formerly enslaved person when it wasn't supported widely and was dangerous in some instances."
