NOTES:

A signature example of Shantell Martin’s bold, spontaneous linework, Fall 92Y – Back Cover captures the artist’s distinct visual language—part drawing, part stream-of-consciousness storytelling. Originally created for the back cover of the 92Y Fall catalog in 2018, the work embodies Martin’s interplay between identity, movement, and memory. Words and figures interweave in a dreamlike flow, inviting viewers to navigate both meaning and form.
