Black and brown bodies are the most heavily surveilled persons on the planet. Through the Glass Eyes is a piece that dissects the current state of extreme government surveillance within our communities and more specifically the community of North Minneapolis. Looking at the strategic placement of CCTV cameras surrounding our environments, and the effect it has on our people. Artist Chango Cummings looks to debunk the stigmas created and project the true narratives of the Black community, using this multifaceted performance, sculpture, and mural.
