Artist Statement

I've been creating since 2019. My work consists of carved paintings strung up by rope and wooden frames or nailed to the walls. The beguiling works are created by layering black paint onto sturdy paper, drawing on the darkened surface with chalk, carving, then peeling away the strips to create the final image.
I create art that commentates upon the injustices done upon and found within the Black community. I strive for an honest understanding of Blackness by exploring aspects of the Black experience that are ignored or not well known and celebrating them.
