content: A print by Sekou Cooke as part of the collage studies from “We Outchea: Hip-Hop Fabrications and Public Space.” The print is a black-and-white outline of one of three terraces of public housing complex Judge Langston C. McKinney Manor in Syracuse, New York. The top view captures the terrace’s cul-de-sac and surrounding structures. On top of the public housing outline are other structures filled with repeatedly horizontal lines or a grid patterns. There are four scattered orange structures in the illustration where a grid pattern-filled structure and a vertical-filled structure overlap. At the center and stretching out to the right are several interior layouts of a housing complex. Screen printed over the print is an outline of the blueprint for the McKinney Manor in a dark color ink. At the bottom is bold text reading [NEW YORK 1.18 / SYRACUSE HOUSING AUTHORITY / Syracuse, New York]. The artist signed the print in the front, lower right corner in graphite: [S Cooke / 2020 / AP].
