Hip Hop Onomatopoeia
Hip Hop Onomatopoeia is a body of work that explores the conversation on gun violence within Hip Hop music. The works are text based, using the onomatopoeia of gun shots in hip hop songs as their poreference. I focus on the onomatopoeia because of its emotional resonance. The titles of the works are the songs the onomatopoeias come from.
These are poster based installations, each poster bears a letter which spells out the utterances. The installations are site responsive, meaning the posters are scalable and the words can be arranged in different configurations.
