Installations

Lincoln, Lonnie, and Me (2012) is an eighteen-and-a-half minute long mixed media and video installation by Carrie Mae Weems that explores the relationship between history, activism, art, and artist. Weems suggested the impartible relationship between art works and the past that is personal and collective by inserting herself into the larger picture of history.
