Assemble is a portrait of Tanisha Scott, choreographer and artistic director. The pose is slightly atypical for the period, intended to reflect the introduction of different standards of portraiture that would have evolved in this narrative. Most likely a descendent, she wears a Black dress with puffy sleeves and an oversized black pearl choker. The title pays homage to Scott’s occupation as a choreographer, as do the red lines, positioned as if in formation.
