FROM THE ARTIST:
I am dedicated to serving my culture through my art and documenting the experiences of being Black in America. When I am creating, I feel as though I am keeping a journal for African Americans. It feels so important to me. Sometimes my work feels like performances when I am done. Black people have been through so much and I like for people to learn something about my people when looking at my art. During the quarantine, I got to spend more time in my studio and became even more committed to documenting the Black experience.
