„Es gibt keine Tyranneien, die nicht versuchen, die Kunst einzuschränken, weil sie die Macht der Kunst sehen. Kunst kann der Welt Dinge sagen, die sonst nicht geteilt werden können. Kunst vermittelt Gefühle.“

- Volodymyr Selenskyj, Präsident der Ukraine

Gleaning: An Image Reclamation Project, 2003-2013
Video , 00:40:00

The video Gleaning: An Image Reclamation Project focuses on the examination of visual culture from a black perspective. Combining sequences of the many found print images, as well as footage the artist took himself, that form his personal image bank, the video is a kind of essay into representations of the black subject in society. Marshall adds images to the work regularly, and thus it continues to grow in length.
