Untitled (Coon Alchemy Series), a 2011 mixed-media artwork by Ibn Kendall, combines a large colorized wedding portrait of an African American bride and groom with a sculptural wooden-and-metal agricultural implement mounted across the canvas. The juxtaposition of the formal archival-style photograph and weathered utilitarian object creates a powerful assemblage exploring identity, history, labor, and cultural memory. The photographic surface is intentionally distressed with scratches, abrasions, and areas of loss, while the reverse retains its fabric backing and hanging hardware. Approx. frame size (in): 60.25 x 41.25 x 11.5.
