I’m a cultural worker and conceptual artist from West Baltimore. My primary mediums include but are not limited to; writing, film, photography, collage and installation art. My focus is on the African Diaspora, specifically those of us in the western hemisphere. My work grapples with identity and power. Through making work that is informative of the past material conditions that create the present, I comment on the future in a way that hopefully pushes the viewer to question reality. I do this through fabricating installations, ideating concepts amd creating still and moving images that push the viewer to interrogate their own internal processes and possibly heal.
