Union Black

This flag is the centrepiece of Union Blacks; an exhibition by Colin Graham. The image is made up of names and organisations of Black and Asian origin from British history. Black and Asian people have played a significant (and often overlooked) part in British culture for centuries. Through this exhibition Colin seeks to reflect and celebrate their contribution to our society and identity through a number of artistic forms including photography, paint, graphics and montage

Lennox Lewis

This portrait of Lennox Lewis challenges notions of form and content by creating a dictionary definition of its subject. Because the obvious routes of pictorial representation have been avoided, it allows the viewer the opportunity to reflect on the subject in a new way. Union Blacks by Colin Graham is an exhibition of British Black and Asian Personalities which seeks to celebrate the contribution of a diverse selection of these individuals to our society. In the pictures, Colin seeks to challenge form as well as content. Each portrait is accompanied by a brief biography and quote from the individual represented.
