This drawing served as the title page image for a series of seven illustrations accompanying the article As the Sun Sets, We Rise, published in Colors Magazine (based at 26th and Blaisdell in Minneapolis). Created in 1993, the work reflects Mkali’s early efforts to integrate visual art with community-based storytelling and journalism. The series captures a formative moment in the artist’s development, where illustration, narrative, and grassroots publication came together as tools for cultural expression.
