Framed in vibrant orange with figures clothed in velvety purples and rich browns, the piece bursts with the duality of both elegance and tension. The scene reflects an African American couple mid 1900s dressed to go out and take their minds off poor living conditions, racism, and news headlines. The orange symbolizes resilience and insistence to uphold joy during struggle. The piano reminds us of the culture’s musical language of survival and joy.
