Work Description:
McIver grew up in poverty in North Carolina and, as a child, became fascinated with clowns. Applying white makeup allowed McIver an escape from her black skin and the struggles around her. Armed with an education in art, she began to explore and make sense of her identity and life. (White, Tim, "Class Clown" http://www.newsrevi… accessed 2009-09-03)
