We’ll add color to a plain white planter. Beneath our skin runs colorful blood – “Polychromatic Skin” is a series of artworks that break through and liberate us from the unconscious stereotypes that stand in the way of freedom and peace embodied by gender. Race, religion, age, gender, national borders… we already hold the means to break through any and all barriers and connect to one another.
