LATOYA FLOWERS

CREATIVE DIRECTOR / MOTION DESIGNER / PHOTOGRAPHER

“Carve Capture is a collective founded by Warren Rudd and Latoya Flowers-Rudd, where we create abstract art, installations with motion design and projection mapping. We wanted to create a projection mapping installation that was representational for black people who descend from American slavery. Referencing line art patterns that were Afrocentric to blend with American aesthetic, using red, white and blue color scheme. It was a way to show a connection from the enslaved Africans that were brought here in America. The burning fire reflects the meaning of black empowerment since the Emancipation Proclamation. The crown above the letter “J” represents strength of overcoming victimization of US slavery.”

BLACK & INSIGHTFUL

“We chose this adjective because we try to develop a deep understanding of our history and challenges in the U.S.”
