After Wood and Warhol
A collaboration with Mara Superior, who created the handmade porcelain platter, that nods to Warholâs Death and Disaster series (1964) depicting Civil Rights Movement riots in Birmingham, AL. Warholâs series Race Riot was based on Charles Mooreâs photographs featured in Life Magazine depicting unarmed Black protesters set upon by police and their dogs on May 3, 1963. To create this platter, Scott handpainted Warholâs screenprint. The shell border is a reference to a motif on a platter by Enoch Wood, Cape Coast Castle on the Gold Coast Africa (c. 1820), that depicts a slave shipâa perfect exemplar of the way that historic transferwares cloaked deeply racist histories in beautiful forms.
