I love this sculpture! As emotional as I am, I tend to cry whenever I feel any emotion. Whether I'm happy, overwhelmed, irritated, excited, anything, I WILL shed a tear.

His work breaks the norm and forces people to talk. I love his film Get Out because it had a lot of underlying messages and included black culture.
