CONTENT OF CHARACTER

"The Passage"

"The Passage" represents a starting point for the shaping of  the character of African American culture.  In many African cultures, masks have been used to tell stories of historical events, adornment for warriors, and parts of costumes for various festivals.  Mr. Hunt's "the Passage" embodies three masks representing the spirits of our ancestors who died during the Trans-Atlantic journey from Africa to America (The Middle Passage).

Conceptually, "The Passage" focuses on the idea that even though these ancestors did not make it to America physically, the content of their character, (hard work, love, respect, honor, and strength) survived the journey as it was passed on to their descendents born in America and other countries along the way from Africa.
