Amidst the cacophony of the bitterly polarized political environment in the United States, the artist embarked on a multifaceted two-year endeavor of photographic portraiture. The project comprises over 1,200 individual portraits across 20,000 miles of both rural and urban America. The project addresses questions about democracy, diversity, identity, and stereotypes. The project is also a color-coded time capsule (blue and red for the official political parties—Democratic and Republican, respectively—gray for Independent, green for Green Party, and yellow for those who can’t or choose not to vote) of the myriad faces and character of the American electorate.

Featuring select portraits from America in Color, this video is a dynamic archive revealing a broad diversity of the individuals—socially, professionally, and politically—who constitute the demographic that is the democratic foundation of America today.
