Description from the Artist:

Mx. Liberty is a series that is part of a larger body of work focused on Nationality and Identity.

"Growing up I occasionally wondered what 'American Culture' looked like. I understood different culture und the umbrella of America but nothing that was specifically 'American'. The closest thing was the south and the southern dixie culture. This was typically represented by white people. In fact, most personified representations of Americans were often white until the 2010s when more Americans of color were recognized for their achievements. As I am pushing to promote more accurate representations of diverse Americans, I want to include this version to be fair that all humans on this land are represented. When I think of America, 'What is it to be American?' or 'What is American Identity?' I think of Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus". The first 'American' symbol people see when they immigrate to the US. With an all-inclusive poem as the message on the Statue's base, I think of the statue of liberty as the personification and mascot of the United States. If this is the case, then why not have our mascot posterchild shown in many different incarnations of identities that make up this country.

After all, it is a salad bowl, rather than a melting pot. Each culture, like an ingredient, is part of the larger dish but still retains its identity even when partially cooked. In a melting pot, everything melts and mingles until it is no longer itself."
