About The Work
In Untitled (Grace), the iconic profile of Jamaican-American singer, actress, and model Grace Jones is cut out, duplicated, and layered by artist Michael Paul Britto. Upon closer inspection, we see that the silhouette was cut from paper printed with white models. Britto says, "By re-contextualizing images familiar to the observers of my work I am able to express ideas and themes that I feel passionately about. I believe the familiarity of the content helps draw the viewer in and causes the spectator to pay more attention to my messages."
