Our Story
Our story is the foundation of our strength, the blueprint for our future, and the sacred thread that connects us to those who came before. This powerful artwork, "Our Story" by artist Larry "Poncho" Brown, captures the importance of learning our history together as a community united in purpose and knowledge. The luminous figures in the background represent our ancestors, their golden presence a reminder that their wisdom, struggles, and triumphs live on through us when we take the time to learn, understand, and act upon the lessons they've left behind.
Created to commemorate the 1st Annual OurStory Expo in Cincinnati, Ohio in 2005, this offset lithography print showcases Brown's masterful ability to blend contemporary artistic techniques with deeply meaningful cultural storytelling. The intimate scene of three figuresārepresenting different generationsāgathered around an open book symbolizes the transformative power of shared learning and the vital importance of passing down knowledge from one generation to the next.
The warm, golden tones that illuminate the background figures create a spiritual atmosphere, suggesting that our ancestors are always present, guiding us as we discover our collective heritage. The detailed linework and vibrant colors demonstrate Brown's skill in creating art that speaks directly to the soul while maintaining the highest artistic standards.
This quality print measures 24x17.75 inches (image size), making it perfect for prominent display in homes, offices, libraries, or educational institutions. Whether you're a collector of African American art, an educator seeking to inspire students, or someone passionate about preserving and sharing our cultural legacy, "Our Story" serves as both a beautiful piece of art and a powerful reminder of the importance of knowing where we come from.
