Artist's Statement:
My work is an opportunity to reflect the relationship between self and home, along with the desolate truths and overt absences that reside there. By investigating the herstory of public and private space occupied by Black people through what poet Elizabeth Alexander reveres as the "Black interior."
I have found potential to heal from intergenerational trauma by extending the Black interior as a safe, creative, and healing space for Black people beyond “the public face of stereotype and limited imagination.”
