Developing for over 40 years, my signature style of Plastic Space abstraction or “Plasticism” impacts the viewer with color, culture and movement.
Message
Marcella Hayes Muhammad's Plasticism artwork presents a thought-provoking abstraction featuring a young woman gazing into a mirror, where the reflections of two generations of her family emerge. This poignant piece juxtaposes the image of a free African ancestor with that of a captured slave, symbolizing the complex journey from bondage to freedom in American history. The artwork invites viewers to reflect on their heritage and the enduring impact of familial legacies.
