An Unpeopled Land In Uncharted Waters 2010

"An Unpeopled Land In Uncharted Waters" is a 2010 work by American artist Kara Walker. The silhouette artwork depicts a black woman with a white mask covering her face, highlighting the theme of concealment and the complex relationship between race and identity in American history. The work explores the idea of the "uncharted waters" of race and representation in a country built on the legacy of slavery. This is characteristic of Walker's work, where she uses silhouette imagery to explore and critique the legacies of racism and gender inequality.
