Ernest Shaw “Know Thyself”

“Know Thyself” by Ernest Shaw, located at the Schwenk Drive Parking Lot, depicts the history of African and African-Americans through the dynamic colors that evoke rhythm and movement. In order to combat the stereotypical, often degrading images of African people, Shaw uses his artwork as a platform to better understand and educate others about the Black experience.
