Part of a series of images I shot in collaboration with Minneapolis filmmaker, Maya Washington. These images were inspired by her documentary film Through the Banks of the Red Cedar about her father, Gene Washington, who was a member of the first fully integrated college football team in America. Washington and other Black players paved the way for the players of today, and these images pay homage to the pioneers of the past while exploring the impact of aging and athleticism have on the body.
