When I Think About Power is a black and white photo series
showcasing over 70 portraits focusing on the notion of power as it
relates to the Black queer experience. Started in 2019, this
project investigates and nourishes modern-day's reimagining of man
through themed chapters questioning the conflicting dynamics of the
Black queer man's power. Hart's approach to this work is rooted in
an examination of his own journey towards self-acceptance growing
up in Macon, Georgia, as he states in the coinciding text, every
day of my life I have been called my father. Through the process of
visually exploring the differences and similarities between himself
and the men who surround him, studying the words of Black queer
icons, and even researching the visibility of power throughout
history in societies like the Ming dynasty or ancient Egypt, Hart
has created a poetically driven collection of images that unravel a
power that plenty of queer individuals seek to find at some point
in their life while simultaneously depicting the struggle that can
often align itself with this power. From queerness, dress, to
heritage, this series documents the journey of discovering the
power within.
