My practice investigates the possibility of form and space and their relationship to my experience as a Black femme moving through the world. I center the historical, the social, and the temporal, always. In my paintings, sculpture, public work, performance, and text art, I am interested in the process of building. To me, building centers deconstruction and reconstruction. I do this building process literally or metaphorically within my practice, sometimes simultaneously. I am interested in this process because it mirrors Black life, and the ways in which those in the Black diaspora rebuild their identities daily in order to re-frame pasts, presents, and futures that truly represent who we are.
