Excerpt from the artist's Impact Statement: "I was especially drawn to Hine because of the parallels between his photography and what I hope to do with my paintings. He was able to distill an entire environment and conflict into a single photo that forced the viewer to confront not only injustices in the nation but also their own role in the world."
