The installation of the two portraits, The Pink Painting and Portrait Study of the Performance (Bausch) shown one at a time, within the mural depicts the dynamic cultivated by white imperialism. The first combination Diagram & Portrait Study of the Performance (Bausch) portrays an enduring response to provocation, intrusion and inspection. The Pink Portrait embodies a resistance to the obligation imposed on foreign individuals to explain their identity by focusing on society's need for this exposure.
