ABOUT THE ARTIST
“As a bi-racial American, I have often felt out of place, excluded, and alone in majority-white spaces. In black spaces, I have also felt different. What I have experienced is that I do not neatly fit into the white culture or black culture but rather rest in the middle. I have conceptualized this unique “in-between” space-based upon my experiences and the conversations I have had with other bi-racial people over the years. Exploring this “in-between” space has been the major focus of my creative work.” – Michael Dixon
