GIA VAINISI


The Colored Museum by George C. Wolfe
This satire piece explores African American culture and identity through eleven vignette "exhibits." This show incited its audience to laugh, cry, criticize, and celebrate the contradictions of being Black in America.
This piece also served as my creative project/thesis for my Honors College program.
