Multidisciplinary Artist
The subjects in my paintings are caught somewhere between rapture and unrest.
The works take on lucidity, as bold patterns and textures are at play, resulting in a marriage of color study and portraiture.
My art is influenced by my experience as a woman of color, and it explores themes of racial, social and gender divides. I am interested in insider-versus-outsider and the symbiotic effect that pop culture has on identity when it strays from tradition.
