Do a puzzle of Lola Jenkins' quilt, Malcolm X.
Lola wanted to capture Malcolm X in a portrait due to his being so misunderstood. Thinking how she would create this in quilt, she realized she had never done a portrait in negative space. So she decided to see if she could portray Malcolm's essence using negative space. To accomplish this, she created the pieces of the portrait separately and then laid them on top of the black background.
