Computers4Kids @tribute
@tribute is the first artist-in-residency project launched by Computers4Kids (C4K). Research has shown that arts participation makes a significant difference to all youth, especially youth from low income backgrounds. Our project was inspired by C4K members response to Kehinde Wiley portraits and was planned to engage them in the creation of self-portraits within a broader context of identity, empowerment, and artistic skill-building. Charlottesville-based photographer Eze Amos captured the final images to create large scale canvas portraits.
