99% NO.22 Mr. David PhoenixSedrick Huckaby'sThe 99% Projectis a part of an installation of 101 lithographic portraits produced at Brandywine Workshop and Archives, Philadelphia. He began this series by drawing family members and individuals he encountered near his neighborhood. Huckaby focuses less on locale than on the process of engaging with people who might otherwise be marginalized in society. Amidst creating works, he asks his subjects to describe what is most important

waxed surfaces

When placed side by side they look like faces or a mask

the means of sanctification and purification

Pulsating with rhythm

some of which that have been handmade

to carry a history that is not recorded in the archives around you

finding no roots

Zagar also included stamp-like text

its potential

who was estranged from his mother as an infant and fled to British Honduras

My work is an exploration of questions for which I find no easy answers

I was not alone
