ARTIST STATEMENT My paintings focus on objective realities of the sociocultural and psycho-social experiences, feelings, expressions, and gestures of human daily experiences. Exploring the use of oil and acrylic on canvas, my works celebrate Afrocentrism in view to promoting the cultures and traditions of Africa likewise embracing the beauty of African women. My inspiration comes from my introspective observations, personal experiences, and what happens around our society. I combine various flows of interconnected hues to symbolize a synergy between people of different colors and genders, effecting a fusion of oneness in a figurative manner. My intent is to create space for those who have been affected by some form of racial segregation, discrimination, gender equity, misogyny, sexism, rape, assault, or gender violence, as well making a vacuum for self-identification, acceptance, actualization, and a focus on the improvements of black women without the fear of exemption. My art seeks to consider humanity and the need to support and work together in cooperation irrespective of gender or race.
