Dig-nificant Metamorph is a video art that represents 'this' dignified defiance fueled with life experiences as a black person and the marginalised temperance.
This piece is an adage to the person(s) of the marginalized. Using photography, moving image, and sound which is interwoven to create the video piece. Using self-photography after re-examing the image of Rosa Parks On The Bus and imaging her thoughts and action.
Representing and using the clenched fists as symbolism to her comments in her autobiography, she thought "The time had just come when I had been pushed as far as I could stand to be pushed, I suppose. I had decided that I would have to know, once and for all, what rights I had as a human being, and a citizen" Rosa Parks (February 4, 1913–October 24, 2005)
The title of the artwork derives from the two words; Dignified and Significant.
"Dignified" is regal in meaning when applied to someone, while "Significant" is noticeable; esp. in leading to an important change. The artwork has latched onto these two definitions of the words, by responding to this systemic catalyst that exists within the marginalised.
