Romare Bearden The Block II 1972

A mosaic profile that frames the world as a Bearden collage. The square frames ripple with a stripwork of color—crisp blues, crimson, and dusk-tinted neutrals—like a city mural folded onto your face. The oversized lenses invite a cinematic gaze, while the prism-like edges turn every glance into a tiny nocturne of light and memory. Put them on and you don’t just see history—you wear it.
