As We See It

Across photography, sculpture and painting, a new wave of Black artists is challenging persistent tropes in art and wider society to depict a richer portrait of the lives of Black people from all corners of the globe.

As We See It brings together 30 image-makers creating visually refreshing narratives on Black cultural identities, and exploring what Blackness brings to the making and viewing of art.

"In real-time, the book profiles a generation of artists who are laying the foundation for and expanding on the idea of the Black gaze--a point of view as urgent and vital as it is multifaceted and ever-evolving." -Feature Shoot
