Artist Statement

The renaissance of Black femininity is upon us, signaling a transformative shift away from entrenched stereotypes toward a celebration of our unique identity and womanhood. This liberation, however, is not without its challenges, as it confronts longstanding narratives that have sought to constrain and control Black women's bodies and identities. 

​

In the face of hostility, manifested in various forms of resistance to our autonomy, we boldly assert our right to self-expression. Whether through the choice of attire, the pursuit of diverse interests, or the unabashed embrace of joy, we defy attempts to diminish our happiness and presence.

​

Driven by the conviction that our stories deserve a fresh interpretation, I infuse my art with an homage to this newfound freedom, joy, and femininity.  In my pieces, I capture the gentle essence of Black women, steering away from the harshness of our past. Figures created are embellished in glitter, diamonds, and gold as a testament to the strength, resilience, and inherent power that permeates our communities.
